Here we can find a big rock, plateau type about 150mts long. On its edges, there are several cracks and holes where many species are hidden.
From here we can swim to 2 other isolated rocks, to Piramide and Rodão dos Mulatos, that are to the West but at a short distance.
There are many varieties of small fish including Pout, Groupers, Wrasses and Damselfish.
Here there is a resident fish: the Napoleon. To see him we have to navigate calmly and slowly as not to frighten him.
Moray eel, Conger eel, Octopuses, nudibranchs, cerianthus, spirographs are very common in this area also.
