About Naufrágio Castor

A wreck dive. You get in from a boat. 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 25°C in July, its coldest month (3 mm wetsuit), and 28°C in March, its warmest (3 mm wetsuit). No town nearby. No bookable town within 60 km: the nearest, Ilhéus, is 173 km away. Nearest airport: BPS (BPS), 15 km.
