Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
SICCHITEDDA ‘NGRANA
The dive starts at a depth of 10 to 12 m on top of the shoal, where the seabed is characterised by rocks forming a number of pinnacles. Swim to the north-west until you come to a short but steep ciliate at a depth of 20 m, on a seabed covered with sandy detritus. To the south-west, a short canal separates a large rock outcropping from the shoal itself. Swimming through it, you will reach the maximum depth of 23 m. Beneath this south-eastern ciliate, the shoal features several indentations where the sea floor is covered by sand.

ANCHOR STOCK IN CAPO GROSSO
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.

MARTINGANA
The Martingana dive begins from the white rocks, from which we slowly head down to the bottom on the south side and follow the volcanic wall on the left, the circumnavigation of which constitutes our underwater pathway. The large wall is full of cracks and small natural niches, it also has a small cave known as “shrimp cave”, which is about 30 m deep. It is recommended to descend slowly in order to observe every corner and cavity of this impressive ridge. The spectacular “White Sand” feature is an enormous expanse of white sand that stretches as far as the eye can see from the foot of the wall (maximum depth of about 40 m).
