Portugal Dive – Madeira, Santa Maria, Peniche

Madeira – the World Travel Awards eight times elected “World’s Leading Island Destination”. Here, you can dive into one of the most privileged places in Europe to practice this sport. The temperate and crystalline waters of Madeira make it possible to dive into its natural reserves and to observe numerous species such as cnidarians like anemones, black corals, fish like groupers, moray eels, stingrays, or – if you’re lucky – even sea lions, the monk seals, the rarest in the world.

The Island of Santa Maria is in the Eastern Group of the Azores archipelago, along with São Miguel, 81km away. The green fields, traditional culture, the chimneys of the whitewashed houses, the dark ochre of the earth, the golden beaches, and the turquoise waters make Santa Maria different from the archipelago’s other islands.

Portugal is Europe’s most western country. Situated in the extreme southwest of Europe, just a few hours from any other European capital, Portugal attracts visitors worldwide.
