Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
IL CAMINO
Red mullets feeding in the grass
The “Il Camino” dive features an alternation of habitats that are abounding with colourful and widely varied types of fauna and flora. The itinerary begins at a depth of about 10 m, in a rocky area with small scattered boulders. An opening leads into the ‘Camino’ (the “Fireplace”). Upon leaving the cave, we continue along the sandy seabed, where the depth of 29 m can be reached by circumnavigating a large boulder. Turning 180°, we head back to the wall, where we begin the re-ascent and encounter a plateau at the depth of approximately 10 m.

ANCHOR STOCK IN CAPO GROSSO
Hellenistic and Roman remains
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.
