Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
PUNTA TRE PIETRE
Below the water’s surface, leaving the last of the three semi-submerged rocks behind you, you will find a long ridge with numerous cracks and crevices that can be inspected using an artificial light source. The Punta Tre Pietre outcropping consists of winding passageways that lead from the deeper outer ridge to the shallower ridge. The dive’s main destination is the rocky pyramid at the end of the ridge itself. From a depth of just under 40 m, this feature rises up to a depth of about 20 m. During the ascent, you can dedicate your time to exploring the rock face and the various crevices.
