About this site
Scoglio della Nave is a large sea stack rising from the sea just off the coast of Enfola (Capo Enfola), on the Island of Elba, Italy. The stack itself protrudes above the surface and descends to 20 m, where a sandy plateau marks the base of the rock. Swimming across that plateau brings you to a steep coralligenous wall that drops to 40 m depth. The wall is characterised by numerous cracks of varying sizes from which spirogyra algae grow, with the largest open crack found by heading westwards along the wall.
The crevices and fissures of the wall shelter lobsters, snappers, sea breams, groupers, eels, and noble pen shells, along with a variety of other small fish and shellfish.
The dive begins with a swim-down from the surface alongside the stack, following the rock face down to the sandy plateau at 20 m before continuing to the wall. The route runs westward along the wall to the large open crack, then ascends back to the surface.
