The dinghy cuts a clean line across blue water and the profile of Capri grows to the starboard — limestone cliffs bright against a sky that seems to sharpen the sea. You step from the rib with regulator steady, and the Mediterranean takes you: currents nudge, rock walls invite inspection, and beds of seagrass shelter timid fish.

You step from the rib with regulator steady, and the Mediterranean takes you: currents nudge, rock walls invite inspection, and beds of seagrass shelter timid fish.
Punta Campanella is part of a protected stretch off the Sorrentine Peninsula where geology and history meet underwater. Ancient limestone shelves and submerged caves record tectonic lift and erosion; shallow shoals and Posidonia meadows sustain commercial and recreational fisheries that have shaped local coastal culture for centuries. The Marine Protected Area enforces limits to preserve these habitats and the archaeological remnants that surface divers sometimes glimpse.
On this two-dive outing a certified park instructor adapts profiles to your license level. The day includes a rib transfer to the dive points, two guided dives with a surface interval overlooking Capri, and return to shore — all equipment is available for rental.
Practical edge: bring your certification card and logbook, eat lightly before boarding, and hydrate — boat spray and sun demand both. Expect variable visibility and mild currents; your guide will pick sites suited to experience and conditions. Motion-sick pills, reef-safe sunscreen, and sturdy deck shoes make the boarding easier. This is a compact, accessible Mediterranean dive day that rewards attention to safety and a willingness to explore what the sea quietly protects.
