Dive-site story
Located on the rugged granite promontory near Palau facing the Strait of Bonifacio, this site is shaped by massive smoothed boulders, deep fissures, and sheltered gullies. Divers weave through granite labyrinths that step down toward sand patches and seagrass beds, where Mediterranean wildlife gathers among the overhangs.
Monumental sculpted granite blocks forming swim-throughs and narrow canyons
Dense clusters of yellow encrusting anemones and sponges on shadowed rock faces
Frequent encounters with territorial groupers and hunting pelagic fish in open water
