About Sasso Che Bara
Sasso Che Bara is an Elba boat dive built around a cone-shaped rock with a yellow wall on its north side and several pinnacles to circle. The route wraps the formation and then works back up the north side, so it reads clearly for a guided scuba dive. Barracuda, octopus, moray eels and squid are the usual payoffs, and the site is especially satisfying when the sea is calm enough for an easy return to the boat.
