It is renowned as an excellent training ground, frequently utilized for beginner courses and 'discover scuba diving' experiences due to its exceptionally calm and protected conditions.

While the description doesn't specify particular marine species, typical Mediterranean shallow rocky and sandy environments host a variety of small fish such as wrasse, gobies, blennies, and damselfish.

Sparse Posidonia seagrass meadows might be present, providing shelter and food for various invertebrates and juvenile fish.
