As Doval de Fora: easy shore reef off Llas beach.
As Doval de Fora is a shallow rocky reef just offshore from Llas beach in Foz. It is reached from the beach on foot and is best suited to beginner scuba, snorkelling and skills practice, with rocky channels, sandy corridors and sheltered crevices that make the site easy to read. The reef is especially lively in spring and summer, when the cracks shelter large lobsters and the shallow bottom stays approachable.
