Now only a small choice of our others dive spots:
Naturally the Mediterranean does not only consist of wrecks:
Secca di Torre delle Stelle: (Marco’s favourite dive spot) A shallow close to the the diving center. A gigantic extension of rocks with
very small passages and with riches of fish. Octopuses, morays, groupers and packs of barracudas are also at the order of the day. Thanks to the close marine reserve this diving spots gets more attractive everyday.
Secca di Baccu Mandara: Our habitual divers call this spot also the “silent shallow”. The singular huge boulders positioned on the backdrop give this dive spot a particular charm.
On the first seeing a little intimidating, but all the more charming. The marine life seems here only to be composed from groupers, morays, octopuses, crabs and packs of breams.
Costa di Genn`e Mari Not only for the beginners, but also for all those divers who love the calm is
this a special place. The coast is jagged with singular tunnels offered to our sight. It is a paradise particularly for macro fans. You can meet crabs, morays, squid, turkish wrasses, golden goby and a lot of others underwater
friends can be encountered here.
Trip to the islands of the marine reserve Cavoli and Serpentara: A trip to the marine reserve of Villasimius is always an adventure. Due to severe rules restricting access to divers and boats it has become an
underwater world of riches comparables to that of the tropic seas. A will variety of species like multicolored gorgonians, packs of striped white breams, cow breams, cicadas these are only some examples. Besides that
the well-known statue of the Madonna is submerged in the calm bay, a protector of all men in the sea, which is celebrated every year with a ceremony. Virgin nature is the slogan here.
Secca di SantCaterina A little bit farer away but therefore a very special shallow. Usually we
connect this dive spot with a trip to the island, because they are quite close to each other. It is a very big dive spot, and therefore impossible to visit entirely
in one dive. Huge rocks creating beautiful partly formed canyons. Baraccudas are almost guaranteed here. Tunas and groupers are also seen from time to time. The dive is often surrounded by a strong current.
Secca di Solanas This dive spot is often surrounded by a strong current and therefore it is rarely visited. But this characteristic also makes it stimulating. Sea life which
usually is rarely met, can be experienced here due to the isolation of the place. Lately, sighting of eagle rays of large dimensions have been reported there.
Propeller of the Isonzo:
Surrounded by a small landscape of rocks, the gigantic propeller of the Isonzo is found in upright position on the backdrop. Between the rocks you
can see some pinna nobilis shells of large dimensions, unfortunately they now become rare. Dusky groupers, sometimes a sunfish and lots of other species wait here for the divers..
..……and a lot more dive spots…
