Porto Ennia (Porto 9), a sheltered shore dive with quick depth.
Porto Ennia (Porto 9) is a sheltered shore dive in a protected bay with a rocky slope that drops quickly into deeper water before flattening to sand. It suits confident divers who want an easy entry, a fast depth gain, and Mediterranean life such as damselfish, grouper, moray eels, and octopus. Treat it as a self-sufficient training dive on calm days, with careful attention to entry, exit, and buoyancy over the sloping rock-and-sand terrain.
