La Anse De La Chiappa

La anse de la Chiappa is a coastal dive site near Porto-Vecchio on the southern Corsican coast. The site lies in shallow to moderate depths with typical Mediterranean conditions: clear blue water, moderate currents possible, and rocky seabed transitioning to sandy patches. Divers may explore a shallow terrace and small rocky ledges that host common Western Mediterranean species such as groupers, moray eels, octopus, and wrasses, with posidonia meadows nearby. Access is straightforward from the shore or a short boat ride, and the site is suitable for both beginner and intermediate divers depending on conditions. The sheltered aspect of the cove often provides more stable visibility and calm entry, especially outside peak winds. Nearby towns like Porto-Vecchio and Cala Rossa offer services and boat support for local diving.
