There are 285 meters of absolute depth. Cave immersion is carried out in two parts: there is a water crossing of a first siphon that ends dry and which requires a transition, on foot, to a second siphon.
The 197 and a half meter dive adds almost 90 meters of descent with material on your back.
The Almonda Novo exploration project was born from conversations between Rui Luís, a speleodiver, and Armando Ribeiro, the most experienced Portuguese deep-sea diver.
In this exploration, new galleries were discovered and kilometers of underground labyrinths were mapped in Almonda, the most studied cave in the country.
“Almonda 285” is the Special Report to see in full.
