SECCA SCIROCCO
The dive with the walls perpendicular to the rocky tower
The top of the Secca Scirocco shoal is located at a depth of 20 m, while the main body of the shoal begins at 25 m. The dive starts from this terrace. The walls descend perpendicularly to the rock tower, which is elliptical in shape. Those on the east side are the most vertical. The path to be followed can be freely selected, and when the entire shoal is visible, you can descend along whichever side you prefer, afterwards ascending in either a spiral or straight manner. At the base on the south side, a series of rocks lie scattered not far from the foot of the shoal itself.
