Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
CAPO TESTA GROSSA
Vulcano's ideal night diving location
Due to the clarity of the water along this stretch of coast, the verticality of the wall’s first stretch can even be made out from the surface. Following a slightly disconnected tract, the rocky seabed gradually turns into a long expanse of larger boulders from a landslide. The boundary that delineates the end of the landslide is extremely deep and should not be crossed. During the re-ascent, you will encounter small canyons at the far end of Capo Testa Grossa. This is Vulcano’s ideal night diving location. Once anchored in the small bay facing north of the Cape, where the depth is no greater than 15 metres, proceed forward while keeping the submerged rock face on your left hand side.

CALA TRAMONTANA – THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL ITINERARY
Punic, Greco-Italic and Imperial Roman amphorae
The beginning of the itinerary, which is marked by a buoy, can be reached by land from the Cala Tramontana pier, or else by sea by mooring your boat to the appropriate float. The itinerary begins at a depth of about 8 m, on a seabed covered with sea grass that slopes down to a sandy plateau.

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.
