About Picchi di Pablo
Picchi di Pablo is a boat-access wall dive off Elba where two pinnacles sit above a steep rock face that drops into a deeper cave and sandy base. The site is famous for its coralligenous colors, fish clouds, and photographer-friendly crevices, and it works as a controlled boat dive for divers who can handle a little depth and an overhead feature near the lower end.

Overhead environment
Safety Notes
Keep a conservative plan near the deeper cave, and maintain tidy buoyancy along the wall and through the crevices.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; the mooring buoy sits above the drop-off and the route follows the wall down toward the cave.
Legal Notes
Follow the boat briefing and treat the cave as an overhead feature unless you have the appropriate training and equipment.
