Why dive here
With 213+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, great white sharks, hammerhead sharks and mobula rays (devil rays) - Punta Spanu offers some of Corsica's richest diving. Water ranges 15-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Punta Spanu, on Corsica’s coast, is one of those Mediterranean dives where you find yourself scanning the rocky bottom for octopus or moray eels tucked into crevices. The landscape is a mix of boulders and patches of seagrass, a typical scene for the region. It’s a straightforward dive, good for getting your fins wet and enjoying the quiet underwater world without any major challenges. We’d suggest it for divers looking for a relaxed exploration rather than a thrill.
