Diving off Calheta

A diver over volcanic reef in the waters off Madeira

Dive operators work out of the marina on volcanic reef and drop-offs a short boat ride from the harbour wall. Calheta faces south, on the sheltered side of the island, so it dives on days the north coast cannot.

Highlights

What you get out of it

  • Volcanic reef and drop-offs close to the harbour
