Catrapona

★★★★☆ (283)

Catrapona is a popular spot for both recreational and technical divers in the Sesimbra area. It is located north of Cabo Espichel and, thus, exposed to prevalent waves and winds that normally hit the Portuguese occidental coast all year round.

Schools of tropical-like fish called Anthias, with long dorsal fins and magnificent bright pink colouration are abundant.
