GROTTA DELLA PASTIZZA

The itinerary with two caves

The dive begins on a plateau about 8 m deep, where you will come up to a vertical wall. Here, the first cave opens up to reveal fascinating light effects inside, which are produced by a split in the ceiling. You will find that the brightness decreases as you enter the cave until you reach a bottleneck, beyond which a flashlight becomes necessary. On the right hand side, you will notice an opening that leads into a second smaller chamber, which is circular in shape and has a sandy seabed. The chamber’s narrow opening allows for at most two divers to enter at a time, and the bottom of the cavity immediately beyond the second chamber forms a sort of gooseneck shape that obstructs the passage, thus darkening the entrance to one of the most impressive caves of the Pastizza itinerary: a large room that rises above sea level, where you can listen to the silence of this natural wonder. The substrate in this room is mostly rocky, but includes a small patch of sand. At this point we head back through the various chambers in order to make our way out of the cave.

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.

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.
