Diving the Giglio and Giannutri Islands

The area around these islands is better for much more experienced divers. These protected waters offer a glimpse of undisturbed biodiversity as scuba diving is the only permitted activity in this location. To dive here you start in Porto Santo Stefano where you can stay and also find guides and equipment and then ride a ferry out to Giannutri Island. There are also some good shipwrecks to explore from back before the time when shipping and other forms of boating were banned from this area.
