Franata

Franata is a local dive site near Spotorno, Merello, and Bergeggi on the Italian Riviera. Access is straightforward, with dive operations typically launching from nearby coastal towns. The site sits along a rocky coastal shelf, offering shallow to moderately deep profiles suitable for recreational diving. Expect clear Mediterranean waters, gentle currents, and typical Western Mediterranean resident species such as groupers, wrasse, moray eels, and octopus, with posidonia meadows in surrounding areas. This is a practical, mid‑range site rather than a major destination, great for training dives, inwater navigation practice, or a relaxed day of underwater exploration.
