Why dive here
With 74+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, mobula rays (devil rays), oceanic whitetip sharks and ocean sunfish (mola mola) - Corallo Rosso offers some of Sardinia's richest reef diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
Corallo Rosso, off Sardinia, offers a decent intermediate dive to 27 metres. The reef here provides shelter for a good collection of Mediterranean critters. We’ve spotted octopuses tucked into crevices, moray eels peering from holes, and schools of damselfish flitting among the rocks. It’s a solid pick for those looking for a relaxed exploration rather than dramatic topography.
