Best for advanced divers, 27-32m, boat entry, strong current.
Torvore is a wreck dive located off the coast of Sagres, Portugal, resting at depths between 27 and 32 metres. This site is suited for advanced divers due to the significant depth, strong currents, and variable visibility ranging from 5 to 10 metres. The wreck provides structural complexity on the seabed. Given the challenging conditions, including potential for nitrogen narcosis and entanglement, divers must maintain excellent buoyancy control and stay close to their guide. Boat access is required for this site, and guided tours are available through local dive shops in Sagres. Divers should always carry a surface marker buoy and plan dives around slack water to manage the current.
