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) - Spalmatore offers some of Sardinia's richest diving. Water ranges 14-27°C, warmest July, August, September.
Spalmatore, off Sardinia, offers a relaxed dive suitable for newer divers or those looking for a laid-back afternoon. The site features gentle slopes and rocky formations where we often spot octopus tucked into crevices and small schools of bream. Visibility is typically decent, making it a good spot for observing the common Mediterranean reef dwellers. It's a pleasant dive, not epic, but reliably enjoyable.
