Full description

Experience an unforgettable day of adventure and relaxation. Set off from Porto Santo Stefano with a group of experienced divers and instructors and dive into the crystal-clear waters of theArgentario, discovering its seabed for a double dive.

Depending on the itinerary planned for the day, you will be able to admire the white granite seabed ofGiglio Island, contemplate sponges and gorgonians among the volcanic rocks of Giannutri, or be captivated by the red corals ofArgentario.

For this activity , the Open Water Diver patent or of a higher level is required.

What we will do

We will meet in Porto Santo Stefano at 8.30 am. Here, participants will be able to unload their equipment and leave theircars in the agreed car park.

After a brief acquaintance with the entire crew, we will be able to define the itinerary of the excursion , which may take place along the Argentario promontory, to the island of Giglio, or to Giannutri. The decision will be made by the skipper depending on the level of the participants and the marine weather conditions.

Once the itinerary has been chosen, we will start our route, which will be a total of 14-15 miles in the day. In the Tuscan sea, the white granite seabed ofGiglio Island, the volcanic rocks of Giannutri, with a flora rich in corals, sponges and gorgonians even at shallow depths, or theArgentario, populated by red corals and a truly varied flora and fauna, await us.

After a maximum of 50 minutes of navigation we will make our first 45-minute dive, followed by a snack on board that varies according to the season. In winter, hot tea and tomato bruschetta will be served, and in summer, bruschetta, fruit and cold drinks.

Refreshed by the food, we will resume our navigation towards the second dive point. We will dive again in the crystal-clear waters of the Argentario to discover the seabed for a total of 45 minutes.

Afterwards we can relax in the sun and enjoy our lunch cooked on board, with a good plate of pasta, fresh fruit, wine, water, soft drinks, and coffee. Inwinter we will return to the harbour around 16:30, and in summer around 17:30, after enjoying a last swim.

In total, the activity will last about 8½ hours.
