Ilha dos Frades Norte
Salvador da Bahia · Brazil
The northern tip of Ilha dos Frades offers clear bay waters with coral heads populated by parrotfish, triggerfish, and green moray eels. Hawksbill turtles are reliably sighted grazing on sponges, and the sandy channels between coral bommies attract spotted eagle rays on incoming tides.
