Canalone
Canalone is Bergeggi Island's signature boat wall dive.
Boat dive in the Bergeggi marine reserve, with a wall-and-gully profile, guided access, and the best payoff for divers comfortable in moving water.
About Canalone
Canalone is Bergeggi Island's signature boat dive in the marine protected area, built around a north-east wall and gully that steps from a shallow shelf into a more dramatic rocky face. The route is all about ledges, splits, and sheltered cracks where sponges, nudibranchs, morays, and mixed reef fish stack up. Plan it as a guided dive with steady buoyancy, because the south side can pick up flow and the site rewards calm conditions.
