Galeao Sao Paulo
Old Galleon, from the beginning of the 17th century, sank at the Cabo de Santo Agostinho in a depth of 19 meters, its wooden hull no longer exists, only cannons and anchors, corals and many fish are found. It was already explored by pirates, thinking it was the Santa Rosa Galleon.
As in all wrecks in Recife, it is possible to find several shoals of fish, some nurse sharks and lots of marine life.
