THE LISCA BIANCA WRECK

A tour of the English cargo ship

After descending into the water, head right past the southern tip of the Lisca Bianca outcropping, over a seabed of algae and sea grass at a depth of 15 m, and follow the sandy channel that leads directly to the ship’s bow. Only the stern portion of the ship is located within the shipping lane, as the bow lies on the port side and is resting along the slope of the seabed itself. The wooden bridges are practically non-existent, with only the twisted and tangled metallic infrastructures remaining in place. In the central portion, you can just make out the remains of the boilers. The stern, which has remained in its sailing trim, is the most fascinating and intact part of the entire wreck. On the deck, you will find the remains of the rudder and its column, while below deck you can make out where the captain’s cabin must have been. Under the sternpost, the remains of the massive rudder and the large propeller have remained in position, with a number of the rudder’s blades hidden by the sand. Here you will reach a maximum depth of 42 to 44 m.

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.

MARTINGANA

The “Sabbione Bianco”: the plain of sand that extends as far as the eye can see

The Martingana dive begins from the white rocks, from which we slowly head down to the bottom on the south side and follow the volcanic wall on the left, the circumnavigation of which constitutes our underwater pathway. The large wall is full of cracks and small natural niches, it also has a small cave known as “shrimp cave”, which is about 30 m deep. It is recommended to descend slowly in order to observe every corner and cavity of this impressive ridge. The spectacular “White Sand” feature is an enormous expanse of white sand that stretches as far as the eye can see from the foot of the wall (maximum depth of about 40 m).
