    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Ripalti presents an intermediate dive down to 29m off the Corsican coast. The main draw is a series of rocky outcrops and small caves, home to a scattering of Mediterranean reef fish. It’s a decent option for those looking for a straightforward dive with some interesting rock formations to explore. We’d suggest it for divers comfortable with moderate depths seeking a relaxed swim-through or two.
