Secca delle Fumose

About this dive site

This dive site presents a unique underwater experience centered around the Portus Julius, likely protected by pylons. The area is characterized by volcanic activity, evidenced by active fumaroles – columns of gaseous bubbles rising from the seabed – which provide a clear indication of its geological origins. Sulfur deposits are widespread across the seafloor. You'll find an abundance of colonized pillars and thriving marine life throughout the dive, adding to the site’s rich biodiversity. The journey through this area offers a fascinating glimpse into a volcanic landscape.
