Underwater at Recife de Fora de Itapuã

Recife de Fora de Itapuã

Salvador da Bahia · Brazil

An outer reef barrier running parallel to the Itapuã coast, exposed enough to attract pelagic species yet accessible for recreational divers. Reef sharks patrol the deeper seaward edge while the lagoon-side slopes hold dense coral gardens with Caribbean-style butterfly fish, angelfish, and abundant sergeant majors.
