More info on Over Sea diving center Cabo Frio Brazil

[macmp]

Hi people,

The summer of 2012 I will be in Rio for a university project. i will stay two weeks longer in Brazil to have some time for myself. I was thinking about diving in the vicinity of Rio. I heard Cabo Frio and Arraial do Cabo were good places to go. I already have a PADI open water licence, but I am thinking to get my Advanced open water licence over there.

I heard Oversea in Cabo Frio is a good diving place, but their site doesn't work and I can't find any info on them. I am interested if they have the possibility to do your AOW, how much it costs and details of how they do the program etc.

Thanks in advance!

Been twice in the last two years in Cabo Frio, both with the guys of Oversea, and have nothing but great experience with them. Each trip we dove 10 times including some amazing night dives in Papagaio.

Santiago and Vander have a great operation, two modern vessels, and lot´s of dive sites to go. I highly recomended them. The only chance to have a bad dive in Cabo Frio is bad visibility. Be aware that water temp is around 19-23º Celsius. I was there in mid october and water temp was 16° C so we use full 7mm suit.

Let me know if you need any other info.

Best regards

Thanks a lot for the info efekete! You know anything about the possibility to do Advanced open water (padi) over there? And the costs for that.

Thanx! Gr macmp

I'm going to Brazil on February 28th for 5 weeks. I will be diving in Espirito Santo and Bahia, maybe Rio de Janeiro and/or Sao Paulo. I have family all over the country, but no one dives.
