About this dive site

This dive site, located on Elba Island, offers a superb diving experience for divers of all skill levels. The island boasts clear water and beautiful white sand beaches, making it a fantastic destination year-round. Divers can explore various options, including shore dives, exciting wreck dives like Scoglio di Remaiolo (a popular boat dive), or circumnavigating a rocky area to discover hidden marine life. One option involves exploring a rock face, where you might find nudibranchs, crustaceans, and other colorful creatures. For more experienced divers, a route along a rocky ridge leads to an islet teeming with anthias fish and vibrant red sea fans. This path allows for dives reaching depths of over 40 meters (130+ feet). During the summer months, visibility is excellent, and the water temperature is pleasant. However, in winter, the water cools to approximately 5°C (49°F), and the marine life population diminishes. Photo Credit: Alberto Balbi.
