Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
SCOGLIO MONTENASSARI
The tunnels of contrasting colours
The Scoglio Montenassari outcropping is practically hollow, and features multiple tunnels that allow it to be traversed diametrically. Beneath its surface, there are numerous walls and ceilings. Montenassari is exploding with magnificent scenery: the large cracks in the surface allow sunlight to penetrate inside, thus partially illuminating the stony base of the cave, with other intermittent areas being left entirely in the dark. Upon leaving the first cave, you will encounter a second with an entrance at a depth of 3 metres: in order to reach it, follow the side facing Filicudi, turn right, and continue along the same side.
Once past the entrance, which is partially hidden and not very large, you will once again find yourself inside a completely submerged cavern.

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.
