Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
CAPO GROSSO
The cliff that plunges into the deep: a paradise for underwater photography enthusiasts
From the point at which it plunges to the bottom (at a depth 50 m), by placing yourself in neutral buoyancy about ten metres up, you can explore a flat section with a few scattered boulders that interrupts the cliff’s vertical progression. Since the depth of the seabed renders it inaccessible, our focus must be limited to exploring the wall itself. Re-ascending vertically, you will return to a depth that is more well-suited to sport diving, where a wide range of rock-dwelling fish and shellfish can be found among the cracks.

ANCHOR STOCK IN CAPO GROSSO
Hellenistic and Roman remains
This location named “Anchor Stock in Capo Grosso” is also in the area of the sea north of Levanzo. From the dive point at about 10 m from the coast, visitors can see the numerous anchor stocks still lying on the sea floor thanks to the crystal clear water, with no need to follow a pre-defined route.

CALA GADIR (archaeological itinerary)
Underwater archaeology for all skill levels
Cala Gadir offers itineraries that are suitable for divers with open water licenses, as well as more advanced divers. The dive begins near the first slipway, which reaches a depth of 6 m at the entrance corridor marked by yellow and white buoys. Heading about 20 m to the north, you will come to a rocky ridge.
