    Isola Bella offers a relaxed dive along a rocky slope, popular with local divers. You’ll weave through small canyons and over a sandy bottom, spotting octopus tucked into crevices and schools of ornate wrasse flitting past. It’s an easygoing site, good for less experienced divers or anyone wanting a gentle second dive.
