About Picãozinho
It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces E: swell from the E reaches it, and wind from the W blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 26°C in August, its coldest month (3 mm wetsuit), and 29°C in February, its warmest (rash vest or 1 to 2 mm). The town to stay in is João Pessoa.
