About this dive site

This dive site offers a captivating underwater experience, combining environmental beauty with notable marine life. The depth presents a moderate challenge due to currents and the considerable vertical extent of the area. Initially, divers can follow a ciliate structure, which leads to dense gorgonian corals and a variety of fascinating inhabitants of this particular region. On the opposite side of the wall, substantial stones provide excellent subjects for photographers seeking detailed imagery. As the dive progresses, the wall gradually descends into a slight recess, culminating in particularly striking Gerardia Savaglia branches that dominate a section of the wall – these are best observed with ample computer time. Returning towards the surface, the dive culminates with an impressive display of barracuda schooling, creating a truly memorable encounter. This location is known for its rich biodiversity and stunning visual elements.
