Boat wall dive with crevices and steady fish life.
Local guidance is recommended because the site is boat-accessed and conditions shape the route.
Cala Corsi is a boat dive off Capo Figari in northeast Sardinia. It is a west-facing rock wall with crevices, sheltered pockets, and a small submerged feature on the return line, so the appeal is classic Mediterranean structure rather than a big-deep profile. It works best as a guided recreational dive in settled weather, with an easy route and reliable fish life.
