This dive site, Marine d’Albo, is an authentic and unspoiled setting found off a black pebble beach, overlooked by a historic 16th-century Genoese tower. The underwater landscape consists of rocky beds that extend from the shore, featuring intricate rocky ridges and small drop-offs. Given its shallow maximum depth of 6 meters, it is primarily recommended for experienced snorkelers and freedivers, offering a serene exploration of its unique topography.
The clear Mediterranean waters here allow for sightings of various common fish species. Snorkelers and freedivers can expect to encounter damselfish, combers, seabreams, and wrasse navigating among the rocky formations and marine vegetation.
The best time to visit Marine d'Albo is typically during the warmer months from late spring to early autumn, when water temperatures are pleasant and visibility is generally good. This site is ideal for those looking for a peaceful shore-based experience, offering excellent opportunities for underwater photography of small marine life and the striking natural rock formations.
