Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
PIRAMIDI (PYRAMIDS)
The dive begins from the Punta Spalmatore dock, where the seabed slopes gently. Keeping the coastline on your left, swim for about 50 m until you come to an extensive plateau with large boulders. At the boundary between the beginning of the plateau and the coast line, which is partially hidden by a landslide, is the entrance to a narrow canyon that must be traversed in single file. At the depth of 35 m, the canyon ends at a vast space delimited by a large wall on the right and surmounted by large rocky ridges similar to the pyramids on the left, which extend towards the surface. Keeping the wall on your right, continue descending until you come to a large cave at a depth of 46 m, otherwise you can re-ascend by turning 180°, and visit a cave situated at a depth of 26 m.

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.

THE RAS JEDIR SHIPWRECK
The shipwreck site is located almost at the centre of Cala Tramontana. The dive begins over a seabed 12 m in depth, which gently slopes down to a sandy plateau at a depth of about 7 m, where the outline of the wreck can be seen in the distance. The stern of the steel Libyan vessel, which was sunk in 2001, lies at a depth of about 18 m. Layout of the wreck: the stern lies to the north-west and the bow lies to the south-east.
