Il Fungo
Mushroom-shaped granite shoal off Spargi.
Experienced boat divers should plan for exposed granite relief, strong current potential, and big-fish action around the Spargi shoals.
About Il Fungo
Il Fungo is the mushroom-shaped granite outcrop on the eastern edge of the Spargi shoals. It is a boat dive for experienced divers who want exposed rocky relief, current-aware planning, and reliable big-fish encounters around the rock and shaded ledges. Treat it as a real open-water dive rather than a casual scenic stop.

Safety Notes
Stay close to the structure, keep an eye on current drift, and be ready to shorten the dive if the sea stacks up.
Access Restrictions
Boat access and current-sensitive planning make this best for experienced divers with a local operator and a conservative turn plan.

The site sits inside the La Maddalena Marine Park, so current permit and operator rules should be checked before departure.
Local Intel For Il Fungo
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best suited to certified divers with solid buoyancy and current discipline. Treat the dive as an advanced boat outing with enough reserve for route changes.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the depth profile and current make it a poor casual freedive target.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is only marginally useful on very calm days near the shallowest relief.
