Punta Della Zanca

Punta della Zanca is a shallow coastal site near Sant’Andrea on the island of Elba. The dive typically features a sloping seabed with rocky outcrops and clear, Mediterranean waters. Access is straightforward from the nearby coastal towns, and visibility is commonly good in calm conditions. Expect rocky habitats with typical Western Mediterranean life such as groupers, small wrasses, octopus, and moray eels around crevices, plus occasional nudibranchs. The site is suitable for beginners and for drift-under-supervision if currents are light. Entry is usually from a rocky shore or small beach with a short swim to the first structures, and dive times are modest, making it a convenient option for a half- to full-day schedule. Nearby towns like Sant’Andrea, Marciana Marina and Pomonte provide services and access.
