Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
SCOGLIO DEL MEDICO
The dive begins from the most beautiful point on the south-west side of the Scoglio del Medico rock outcropping. The anchoring point is located over a rocky seabed. After crossing a small landslide of rocky material, the side entrance to the Grotta del Medico cave opens up beneath a boulder, which provides access to a cavern about 40 m in length. This has two openings on opposite sides, thus resulting in a splendid pale blue lighting effect. Upon leaving the cave’s largest room, you will come to an area which consists of a depression surrounded by rocky walls. From here you will head through a small canyon, where the seabed has steep walls topped by rocky arches. You will come to a plateau, beyond which the seabed drops to a depth of about 35 m. Remaining at a depth of 20 m, head towards the large rock that rises out of the sea floor, and along the vertical wall that plunges down to a depth of about 40 m. This will bring you back towards the dive site, where you can re-surface after making the safety stop.
