Porto Martins

Porto Martins is a coastal locality on Terceira Island in the Azores. It serves as a gateway point for access to nearby dive sites around the island, with a number of potential boat and shore dives in the volcanic and oceanic surroundings. While the immediate area is not a major dive hub, divers typically rely on bridges to the island’s more prolific dive sites, including lava tubes, walls, and reefs farther afield, with visibility and conditions varying seasonally. There are no dive centers listed in Porto Martins itself, so gear rental and guided trips are commonly arranged from larger towns on Terceira or the central Azorean hubs.
