Cala della Chiesa

Cala della Chiesa is one of the top snorkeling spots in the Lavezzi Islands Nature Reserve, tucked into a small sandy cove framed by the dramatic sculpted granite that defines this whole archipelago. You anchor off here and wade or swim in — the reserve's protected waters mean visibility and marine life are something else. It's raw and uncommercial, sitting well offshore from Bonifacio with nothing but open Mediterranean around you.
