Lo Scoglione, near Bonifacio, is a good spot for newer divers to get comfortable. The dive takes you around a small rock stack, dropping to about 25 metres. We’ve seen plenty of Mediterranean reef fish here, along with a few nudibranchs if you look closely. It’s a pretty straightforward dive, ideal for getting back in the water or for those still building confidence.
