L’Ancora

About this dive site

This dive site, known as L'Ancora, is characterized by a massive underwater formation rising from 46m to 24m, featuring a large admiralty anchor near the 26m mark. Navigation is relatively straightforward, focusing on exploring the anchor and the surrounding rock formations. The site's history isn't explicitly detailed, but the presence of the anchor suggests a potential shipwreck or historical maritime significance.

The rich biodiversity makes L'Ancora a rewarding dive. Divers can expect to encounter a variety of species, including moray eels, octopuses, scorpionfish, and numerous nudibranchs. Larger pelagic fish are also commonly sighted, adding to the excitement.

The best time to visit L'Ancora is likely during the warmer months (spring to autumn) when visibility is usually best and the water temperature is more comfortable. Given its depth, this site is not suitable for snorkeling or freediving; scuba diving is essential. Divers should be aware of their depth and buoyancy control, respecting the environment and avoiding unnecessary disturbance to marine life.
