Lots of dolphins
by Alaoliv
One of the most definitive experiences in Noronha is meeting the dolphins. Acutally, there is a place called ´Dolphin´s Bay´, where early in the morning you can watch the arrival of around 5 hundred dolphins to rest. It´s simply amazing!
THE FIRST TIME
by janaina
Fernando De Noronha was my first diving place,and,as a first time of everything,every single fish,or reef,or whatever moved in the water,was a lifetime undescrible meeting.
But,definately,the meeting with this turtle was my my best memory!
The green turtles from the archipelago are protected by a special national program called TAMAR,the professionals who work in this project,monitorize the habitat and life cicle of the turtles,and,most important,they close the beaches during the time the females are covering the eggs in the sand,and further,when the small young turtles make their traject from the sand to the sea,in their very first swin!!! Everyone who remember his first dive,know what I'm talking about..
Baia do Sancho from the trail

When you arrive from Baia dos Porcos to Sancho, you will be able to see the beach right from above....in two angles...that one other thing you can´miss....the vie is amazing, you will se the water going to dark blue as the depth increases...
In this pic there´s the hill between Sancho and Baia dos Porcos....the best place to dive and snorkel in this beach...
Watching dolphins from the boat
by perfectly_zen
That is something you really can´t miss!! Take the boat that goes along the whole side of Mar de Dentro, at 6:00 AM or 6 PM, and you´ll have the chance to see the golphins making their journey either to the shore (early in the morning), or to the open sea(at dawn). To communicate, the leader usually jumps off the water...that´s why they are called "rotators", the most common species in the island.
And who needs Seaworld? =P
BAIA DOS PORCOS (the pig's bay )
by janaina
Baia Dos Porcos has a unique beauty,because its geological aspects:vulcanic dark stones,forming the mountains,and a deep light green water.
The rich coral reefs around this beach is strictly protected,it's forbiden to swin or dive in this area,you can only observe the sea from the hills.
