Punta Del Nasuto

Punta del Nasuto is a shallow coastal dive site near Marciana Marina on the western edge of Elba Island. Access is straightforward from the shoreline, with depths typically staying in the shallow to mid-range range suitable for these conditions. The site profile is driven by the rocky seabed and the transitions between sand and rubble, offering mild currents and comfortable underwater visibility in good conditions. Marine life in this area commonly includes small groupers, wrasses, rockfish, octopus, and tufts of bryozoans and gorgonians along the rocky terraces. The site is popular for easy recreational dives close to the coast and makes for a reliable option near Marciana Marina, Sant’Andrea, or Portoferraio for day trips. Typical entry is from a rocky beach or small access points along the coast, with a straightforward swim and a short run to the first features.
