    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Punta Sciuscia offers a straightforward dive along the Ligurian coast. We've seen decent gorgonian fields here, particularly the red ones that really pop against the rocky seabed. It’s a good spot for a relaxed exploration, suitable for newer divers or those looking for a shallower, less demanding profile. Keep an eye out for moray eels tucked into crevices.
