About Franata
Franata is the steeper wall-style dive in the Bergeggi reserve, built around a rocky slope cut with cracks and small cavities. The main route follows the drop-off and a deeper rock line, so the dive feels like a guided wall-and-reef-edge exploration rather than an easy coastal swim. It suits divers comfortable with a deeper profile and reserve-managed boat access. Expect sheltering fish in the cracks, with groupers, moray eels, barracuda, scorpionfish, nudibranchs, and octopus often mentioned.
