Rabbate

The itinerary of the neophyte naturalists

The Rabbate dive begins off the coast at about 10 m from the shore, at a depth of 7 m. The wall is exposed to the northwest, and we follow it on the right hand side, heading eastward. Large boulders lie in the sand on the side of the open sea. The vertical wall of the ridge gradually becomes more curved, with a number of small caves and a seabed of coarse sand. A series of channels similar to “canyons” later appears, interlinked by small tunnels. A 3 m wall with rock formations and a number of small splits stands opposite to the north. The wall then gradually slopes and descends, and you will find yourself on a plateau at a depth of 8 m, with ravines on the left hand side that are home to various fish species.

Cala Minnola

Amphorae in the sea grass

In the water off Cala Minnola, at just a few dozen metres from Punta Albarella, a Roman shipwreck can be found at a depth of 27 to 30 m. The wreck features the remains of a shipload of amphorae (fifty), as well as numerous fragments of black painted pottery (used on-board), which have remained in their original location on the seabed.

Capo Graziano

The marine archaeological itinerary of ancient and modern times

The itinerary is marked by a guiding rope, which is initially fastened to the wall, and then to the bottom at a depth of 29 metres. The dive starts (with sign 0) at the mooring buoy, following an S/N heading. After a brief pause on the top of the shoal, you will begin your descent and will encounter the first artefacts at a depth of about 30 m. Keeping the wall of the shoal on the left and turning right (at sign 2), you will come to the observation platform at a depth of about 30 m (sign 3), from which you can observe wreck A, known as “Roghi” (from the 2nd century B.C.), which is located at depths ranging from 36 to 45 metres. Re-ascending to the depth of 28 m, you will come to a cave (sign 4) that boasts an abundance of natural features. Continuing on, a stone anchor dating back to the fifth century B.C. can be found in the vicinity of a landslide, at a depth of around 25 m (sign 5). Heading back towards the surface, the route turns south through a channel full of small caves (sign 6) at around 8 m, where remains of more recent origins can be found. From here, you will soon return to the starting point (sign 0).
