About this dive site

This dive site is located within the largest area of the Biological Protection Zone. Dive operations and management are overseen by the 'Club Sesto Continente - San Giorgio delle Pertiche (Pd)'. The rocky formation, part of the main and most extensive Tegnùe di Chioggia complex, extends for hundreds of meters north-south and frequently appears as a double ridge. The highest rock outcrops reach a depth of 17 meters, while the surrounding seabed, composed of mud, descends to 21 meters. A mooring buoy is situated 30 meters west of the rocks.
