    Ciappa del Lupo is a gentle dive, perfect for beginners or a relaxed second dive. The maximum depth is only 10m, making it a great spot for extended bottom times. We often find octopuses tucked into the rocks and various small Mediterranean fish darting through the seagrass beds. It's an easy entry and exit, usually with minimal current, allowing you to focus on the details.
