Protected Giannutri dive with groupers, Posidonia, and a deeper edge.
Boat access and park rules make a local guide the normal way in.
Le Cerniette is a Giannutri dive built around a gentle slope of boulders and Posidonia that leads toward a deeper edge. Groupers are the headline, but the real appeal is the mix of fish schools, barracuda, dentex, and the way the site moves from the shallower working zone into more dramatic relief without feeling contrived. It rewards calm buoyancy, steady gas awareness, and a relaxed pace.
