About Parede da Lagoa Azul

Parede da Lagoa Azul is São Tomé’s rocky wall dive, with a shore entry over stone, a reef full of life, and sandier sections farther out. Divers come for the close-in access and the contrast between the rough entry and the calmer, life-rich water beyond it. High tide makes the approach much friendlier, so this is best for divers who want a straightforward shore dive with a little planning around the entry.
