Scoglio di Tahiti

★★★★☆ (848)

The real name would be Cala Coticcio but it is now called Tahiti in honor of the beach of the same name nearby. The 10m buoy offers an easy descent and the shoal is very wide. It is bordered by the beautiful white sand that creates a beautiful contrast with the rock. You can also go deep up to 35m.

Schools of salps and bream. Clouds of damselfish. Lone barracuda and snapper. Groupers in the deep end. Lobsters, moray eels and many nudibranchs.
