Usually reached by boat from Ajaccio-area dive centers; the site is selected when sea and visibility suit the day's group.
La Campanina is a boat-dived rocky site off Ajaccio that splits into two distinct experiences: a fishy drop-off section for relaxed dives and a much deeper cave line for advanced profiles. The terrain is all about rock faces, arches, and ledges, which pull in dense Mediterranean fish life and make the site a strong fit for divers who like structure, water-column scanning, and clear-water exploration.
