Cova do Sonho
★★★★☆
(433)
Calm/protected bay with close to no currents. With a rocky/sandy bottom, the bay is full of huge boulders with cracks/crannies that marine life uses as shelter. Going around said boulders, it’s possible to observe huge schools of fish roaming around. If the tide allows, it’s possible to explore a couple of caves.
Beware of contact with red/brown scorpion fish [venomous]. Beware of contact with sea-urchins [spiny needles].
