The dives are also conducted from the ground where it is possible to perform the two cilia that appear in front of us. The sites have different diving spots for all levels of experience, ranging from the shallow seabed rich in plant species, including valuable ones such as Posidonia oceanica, to the rocky and coral substrates that offer all the flora and fauna typical of our Tuscan coast, not least the red coral (already a few meters deep) and the white, yellow and red gorgonians. In suitable seasons it is possible to see step fish such as snapper, mobule and sea eagles or sedentary species such as corvine, banded bream and groupers.
The dive site is open all year round, there are no seasons to avoid. The cliff is exposed to the prevailing winds of the second and third quadrant so diving after the libeccio or the tense mistral is not recommended, given the steep nature of the rocky coast it is not recommended to dive after heavy rainfall, among other things rare in the area. The best moments are after the sirocco winds when the visibility reaches remarkable peaks.
The dive site is easily reachable by land along the SS1 Aurelia and parking on site, or by sea along our splendid rocky coast until you find the bridge with the gulf dominated towards the north side by the typical sighting tower. Along the road and having parked the site, it is possible to go down towards the sea along an easy path that passes right next to the tower and ends with a few steps right near the steel ladder that indicates the entry / exit point.
