Dive-site story
Located off the historic island in Lake Garda, this submerged shoal presents steep rocky drop-offs and jagged underwater cliffs descending into the deeper lake basin. Divers encounter typical subalpine lacustrine topography featuring rock crevices, vertical profiles, and shelves carpeted with silt and algae. Navigating the site requires reliable buoyancy control to avoid disturbing the fine lakebed sediment.
