Fun Dives

Sagres is a rich place for diving adventures. Famous caves like “The Cathedral”, breathtaking canyons like “The Shadow Canyons”, shipwrecks from World War I, coral reefs and Archeological sites, offer a great opportunity for underwater photography and memorable scuba diving experiences, either from a boat, shore or a Kayak-Ecodiving.

We also offer weekly dive trips to the most recent sunken vessels from the Portuguese Navy fleet, the exciting Ocean Revival Project.

At Martinhal Beach, a few steps from the Divehouse, you will find our home reef, a “Caribbean” like dive site. If you are a novice looking to try scuba, a certified diver feeling like a very relaxing shore scuba dive or to go for a snorkeling, you will love this site at our door.
