Elba has been a nature reserve for several years and this is most apparent while immersed in the aquatic realm. You will marvel at the clear blue waters where schools of small fishes, often barracudas, moray eels, conger eels and groupers may be seen. With a little luck, you can even encounter a sunfish. The underwater landscape is quite varied due to an abundance of caverns, tunnels and deep drop offs.
A keen eye will find copious amounts of nudibranches and other mollusks with fields of anemones and ascidians and is perfect for macro photographers. A short boat ride will take you to areas where red corals will be found and one stunning site offers red gorgonian fans in the 30 – 50 meter depth range. In the area is a small airplane wreck and a 30 year old sunken freighter are easily accessible from shore for wreck enthusiasts. Navigation at dives sites is almost always very easy and currents are seldom. Most of the dive sites are located very close to our resort and the boat trip with our RIBs normally takes less than ten minutes. Some of the dives sites further away can be reached from shore with our minibus. We offer up to five dive trips daily catering for early risers, a later dive for holiday makers who wish to relax from the rigors of work and night dives. Diving courses from beginner to professional level can be done according to PADI or SSI standards. PADI and SSI are the two largest dive certification agencies worldwide, the successful candidate is awarded the certification and this certification is recognized worldwide. Continuing education is offered according to IANTD standards for those who are interested in deep and Nitrox diving. Notes:
