    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Scoglio Nave is a shallow, relaxed dive, perfect for beginners or those getting back in the water. We’ve often spotted small octopus here, tucked into crevices, along with schools of damselfish darting between the rocks. It’s an easy entry and exit, making it a good choice for a gentle afternoon dive when you just want to get wet.
