Balsa Dianka

This dive site, known as Balsa Dianka, is an artificial reef located approximately 30 meters deep off the coast of Brazil. It's primarily an advanced dive due to its depth and requires boat access, typically via speedboats due to its distance from shore. The site is characterized by its man-made structure, which provides shelter for a variety of marine life. Navigation is relatively straightforward, focusing on exploration around the raft structure. The Dianka Raft attracts a variety of fish, including Grouper and Barracuda, which are the primary draw for divers. While smaller marine life may exist, the focus is on the larger species. The artificial nature of the reef means that the diversity of coral and other invertebrate species might be less than on a natural reef. The best time to visit is likely during the warmer months when visibility is typically best and marine life is most active. Divers should be prepared for moderate currents and ensure they have appropriate certification and equipment for a dive of this depth. Freediving is not recommended due to the depth and potential currents.
