Was hoping someone else was going to chip in with some suggestions.
Have only been diving in Fernando de Noronha. This is 1 1/2 hours flight from Recife. So not somewhere to fit in a few dives unless you planned to go there.
Have thought about going to Ilhabela or Ilha Grande to dive as there are in-laws in São Paulo. Maybe one day.
It all depends on where you plan to travel around Brazil? It’s a little larger than the UK so 2-3 weeks is not enough to cover the whole country.

Fernando de Noronha, Recife, and NAtal are by far the best places
But there are other options of local dive near major cities
Where you will be? You may contact me for help

Thanks both. I’m currently in Argentina as part of a longer trip. I fly home from São Paulo mid June so will spend the last few weeks in Brazil.
I’ll likely travel into Brazil at Iguazu then leave from São Paulo. Everything else in between can be flexible.
I spoke to a dive shop in Recife and they said June is difficult because of the weather. They won’t be able to confirm any dives until a week before.

São Paulo do have some good local diving, the northeast really suffer from weather in june
Laje de Santos is a quite nice dive site two hours ride from São Paulo.
Also ilhabela and Ubatuba are nice places within reach but dont expect caribbean like conditions
P.M. me and i can send you some contacts in both southeast region and Né

Hi Evan!
I will be in Brazil Feb 11-21, and am looking to dive once, maybe twice (the group I am traveling with does not dive). I was wondering if you could suggest any dive shops or sites? We will be spending time in Rio, Ilha Grande, Paraty and Ubatuba.
I have heard both Ilha Grande and Ubatuba (Ancheita island) are nice, but would love some advice!
Thanks in advance!
They are both nice places! I mus look at my agenda (I'm a surgeon by profession) to see if i can join you at Paraty (A lovelly 18TH century city!!!!!!!) or Ubatuba, look at me on instagram @evandroairton or @inspiration_ccr_brasil, or my website www.inspirationbrasil.com.br .
If you want a nice diving experience, check the "Atlantis Enterprise Liveaboard", reach me throough the channels i've told above, i can help you, and maybe go with you.
If you like tech diving, do CCR, or want some Wrecks i can hep you too
Regards
