Scuba Diving

Location:
Leblon Beach, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Diving

By Aaron Smith

The water is cold, so wear a full-body wet suit. In Rio, the main diving spot is off the Cagarras Islands, near Ipanema. Visibility can be bad. The currents and diving conditions are only possible at the end of the summer. This is O.K. if you need a quick diving fix while you're in the city.

Price Description: These guys aren't the cheapest, but their equipment is good and they have English speaking instructors.

 

An introductory dive is about 130 reals and 180 reals for a licensed diver, with all the gear included.

Relative price: Expensive

Travel Skills: intermediate/somewhat difficult.
