Ponta da Atalaia is located in the south of Portugal, in Sagres. It features a rocky wall and 3 big caves filled with lots of marine life. The caves make this dive quite an interesting experience. They are easy to dive even for beginner divers, since their diameter is no more than 10m/32ft. The caves are overgrown with colorful gorgonians which provide shelter to lots of species including octopus, starfish of different colors, common sea breams and lobsters that can be seen here on a regular basis.
