World War II Shipwreck - Dori

Today we dived with Frank, Jan, Jeff, André and Henrique!

The Dori shipwreck is the most requested dive site by divers who visit the island of São Miguel. With 20 meters of maximum depth, this World War II cargo ship provides shelter for several marine species. It is also a beautiful archaeological site, where you can see the well preserved remains of the ship.

Dori Shipwreck with Linda, Arthur, Isabelle and Ludovic

Today's dive was in the Dori Shipwreck with Linda, Arthur, Isabelle and Ludovic!

The water temperatures are rising (17/18ºC) which makes the dive more fun. On this dive, we not only saw the beautiful and colourful marine life of Azores such as blue damselfish, several wrasse species, parrot fish, white seabream and wide-eyed flounder. But we also visited the artificial reef of a World War II cargo ship which is a beautiful archaeological site to observe.

Join us in our next dives!!

Full Dive Day - Double Dive and DSD

What an amazing day with a double dive in the morning and a Discover Scuba Dive Program (DSD) in the afternoon.

If you are a certified diver and you are staying in São Miguel island for your holidays, you can't leave the island without diving in the famous Dori shipwreck. An old World War II cargo ship with 130 meters of length full of marine life to observe. In the rocky site of Ponta do Cavaco there is a beautiful and majestic arch with colorful wrasse species,blue damselfish, white seabream among other interesting creatures.

For the DSD sea section we went to Capelas (on the North coast) and we start the dive by the coast. It is a rocky site with an easy entrance for the water that gradually becomes deeper. In this DSD we saw a big school of sardines, white seabream, several wrasse and blennies species.
