About this site
Mar de Pedra sits off the coast of Faro, in the Algarve region of southern Portugal, an area of Atlantic coastline known for its rocky reef formations and sea caves. Dive sites along this part of the Algarve are typically reached by short boat trips out of Faro or nearby Olhao. Divers here have also reported sightings of West African fiddler crab among the rocky terrain.
