Tenuta delle Ripalte

The Diving centre on Elba Island

Situated on the Remaiolo beach 9km from Capolivieri


The centre is within the Ripalte Estate along the south west coast of the island. It is next to the beach so as to allow easy access to the various dive points.

The Diving is available to all those who love the sea and want to share their passion for this sport. There are underwater diving courses at all levels, held in English and German, according to the didactic methods of the PADI, the leading underwater diver training association.

The dives (by day, by night and full-day) are held by an expert guide and planned according to the level of expertise of each diver, within the safety diving area and the depth limits specified by the harbour-office.



All visitors who do not have an underwater diving licence can take part in an introductory diving course, whilst children, from the age of 5, can take part in courses and specific activities as well as underwater trips, games and treasure hunts.

Snorkelling and excursions on the motorboat gives everyone the chance to explore the “Sixth Continent” and enter into the marine area that makes up part of the Tuscan Archipelago National park.

The centre is equipped with modern facilities for learning and logistics: multimedia study room, video library and library, deposit for equipment, compressors for tank refills and up to the minute equipment.

Opening dates: April-October, located on the beach at Remaiolo only 9 km from Capolivieri.
