Dragone

About this dive site

This dive site, Dragone, is a beautiful wall dive located in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Italy. The dive begins in shallower waters where diverse marine life, such as moray eels and nudibranchs, can be observed. As divers descend, the terrain transitions into a dramatic underwater landslide, leading to a deeper and more expansive section of the dive. Navigating the dive is straightforward, generally following the wall structure. The history of this specific dive site isn't detailed in the provided information, however it's part of a rich Mediterranean seascape with likely long-standing marine life presence.

The marine life visible at Dragone includes groupers, snappers, and croakers in larger numbers, alongside the shallower-water moray eels and nudibranchs. The variety of fish indicates a healthy ecosystem. The wall itself likely boasts various types of algae, sponges, and possibly some Mediterranean corals depending on the location.

The best time to visit Dragone is likely during the warmer months (May-October) when visibility is typically higher and the water temperature more comfortable for diving. For freediving, choosing calm days with minimal currents will enhance the experience. Divers should check weather and sea conditions before diving and always dive with a buddy. It's advisable to carry a dive computer to properly monitor depth and bottom time.
