Porto de Santo Antônio
The archipelago's only harbor, the departure point for island and diving boats, with a shark museum and the Fishermen's Chapel of St. Peter.
The gateway to the archipelago's waters, where dolphin-watching island tours, scuba diving and towed snorkeling (planasub) all depart. The harbor water is clear, and you can often see sea turtles and lemon sharks swimming near the shipwreck. Beside it are the Shark Museum, which doubles as a restaurant and introduces the island's sharks, and the white Fishermen's Chapel of St. Peter, a good place to watch the sunset. Boat tours start at around 200 to 300 reais, and advance booking is needed in peak season.
