About this site
Cemitério Das Âncoras lies off the coast of Terceira in the Azores archipelago, in the mid-Atlantic waters of Portugal. The name, meaning cemetery of anchors, points to a location where old ship anchors are known to rest on the seabed near this volcanic island. The site reaches a maximum depth of around 32 metres and is rated an intermediate dive. Divers have also reported boat traffic in the area, so awareness of surface activity is worth keeping in mind.
