Protected Tavolara boat dive with easy wrecks.
Use an authorized Tavolara-area center because protected-area access and buoyed routes are part of the normal setup.
Scoglio dei Tre fratelli is a shallow Tavolara-area boat dive with granite outcrops, posidonia, and an easy wreck line that feels more like a relaxed natural aquarium than a hard wreck objective. It suits beginners, photographers, and anyone who wants clear water, low current, and a lot of fish movement in a protected marine area.
