Archetti
Also known as: The Arches
Natural arches and narrow siphons on Giannutri within the first 15 m, creating striking plays of light. Open to every certification level, with a deeper wall beyond 30 m for experienced divers.
The buoy sits at about 15 m on rocks mixed with Posidonia. Arches and siphons connect the bottom with the wall that rises to the surface, so light-loving brown algae and shade-loving sponges and bryozoans live side by side. Wrasses, damselfish, bream, morays and small groupers are typical. Experienced divers can first visit a high wall below 30 m with lobsters and large scorpionfish, and a small grotto there is home to two European lobsters. Many divers end the dive back at the arches.
