Morning light slices across Angra Bay and the dive boat heels gently as instructors check tanks—visibility here often reveals a world of color just beneath the surface. Participants step from a small marina into warm, glass-clear water where granite islands rise like old anchors and the Atlantic Forest presses to the shore. The short run from port to reef lands you at sites chosen that day for tide and sightlines: a single, shallow beginner dive or multiple deeper sites for certified divers.

The shoreline around Angra dos Reis was charted by Portuguese sailors in the early 1500s; Ilha Grande later hosted a penal colony, and today its abandoned structures and sheltered coves frame a region shaped by volcanic granite and dense coastal forest. Local fishing villages still sell their catch on mornings, and boat crews balance modern dive safety with long-standing island know-how.
Practically, the trip is a three-hour shared outing on a fully equipped dive boat run by PADI-certified staff. The operator supplies wetsuits, tanks, and fins; bring a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, and your certification card if you’re a certified diver. Expect a brief orientation and wetsuit fitting, one supervised shallow dive for novices, and up to two sites for certified divers when conditions allow. Water, seasonal fruit, and a light snack are provided. Arrive early, disclose weight/height/shoe size when booking, and follow briefings closely: currents and visibility change with tide and swell. Respect coral—no touching or fin-kicking—and you’ll come away with close encounters of turtles, parrotfish, and maybe an old wreck peeking from the sand.

Angra dos Reis was charted by Portuguese explorers in the early 1500s; nearby Ilha Grande later served as a penal colony, leaving ruins that dot its interior and shores.
The region relies on reef and forest conservation; visitors are asked to avoid touching coral, use reef-safe products, and follow local waste rules to limit impact.
Sunrise Adventure Ribeirão Preto operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
