The waters off Marina di Campo are among the most popular dive sites on Elba, protected within the Tuscan Archipelago National Park. The seabed drops through forests of posidonia seagrass, past rocky reefs thick with grouper, moray eels, and octopus. The bay itself is sheltered and relatively shallow — good for beginners — while the headlands to the east, around Punta Fetovaia, offer more dramatic terrain for experienced divers. Several dive centres in town offer courses, guided dives, and equipment rental. Snorkelling along the rocky edges of the bay is rewarding without any equipment at all.
