Secca Fondale
The challenging dive
The top of the Secca Fondale shoal is located at 12 m in depth. The descent consists of various levels. One side is dominated by a plain covered with rich vegetation, which leads to a first large terrace with a rocky bottom. From there we descend onto another shelf at about 5 m in depth, where a wall about 15 m tall and rich in plant and animal life emerges. Here, a cave and a large crack hidden among the sea fans can be found among the various gorges. Upon passing this ravine, we descend to the bottom at a depth of about 25 m, first swimming into a channel, and then over a number of large boulders, at a depth of approx. 30 m.
