Punta Chiappa
★★★★☆
(483)
Punta Chiappa is a rocky outcrop jutting out into the sea, revealing beautiful seabeds on both sides, worth exploring at a depth of about 25 meters. Descending deeper, you’ll find detritus flats, home to organisms typical of this type of seabed, such as striped sea breams and red mullets.
The seabed is rocky and detrital, rich in algae and sponges, both encrusting and massive, with showy polychaetes and echinoderms, especially starfish. Rich in marine life.
