Argentario Diving: Private Guided Dive on Pristine Reefs

Dive the Tuscan Archipelago's protected reefs with Argentario's most respected dive centre — vivid posidonia meadows, octopus-laced rocks and schools of amberjack in some of Italy's clearest coastal waters.

What to expect

Your PADI guide briefs you aboard a rigid inflatable, then leads you down to reef systems teeming with moray eels, fan corals, nudibranchs and pelagic fish. Sites range from shallow coves suitable for first-timers to dramatic drop-offs for experienced divers. Equipment is top-tier and well-maintained. Surface intervals are spent drifting in warm, gin-clear water above the Argentario's legendary submarine geography.
