Ficajola
Shore-side dive below the Piana cliffs with a wall, boulder slopes and a few rocks on sand, including one called the Indian Head. The appeal is the encrusting life and the swim-throughs rather than big fish; slipper lobsters hide in the rock and red coral grows at about 25 m on the eastern wall.
