"In the few years of my career as a scuba world businessman, I realized that most divers, despite the relevance of the Gulf of Naples in the history of underwater research and the presence of three marine protected areas (over an area of 20 nautical miles), aren't aware of the diversity and beauty it offers". This is what Edoardo says about the beauty of the bottoms of the area where we go usually diving. This led him to develope the passion for the underwater photography since long time and to make friends with worldwide famous scuba photographers.
So periodically our diving center makes available for the guests these knowledges and experiences, organizing scuba photogragraphing workshops and theme dives.
Inform yourself when there will be next photo dive or workshops!!!
Here there are some photographers who collaborate with us:

Roscigno has displayed his ciba chrome posters in many exhibits in Italy and abroad.
