GROTTA DEI GAMBERI

The narrow cave inhabited by shrimp

Leaving the coast behind, the underwater pathway initially proceeds in the direction of the open sea, and features a rocky shoal. After reaching the depth of about fifteen metres, the plateau gives way to the ciliate and the wall, which drops vertically for about twenty metres. Continue following the wall as it bends decidedly to the right, as it will lead you directly to the dive’s destination: the Shrimp Cave, whose entrance is located at a depth of 33 to 39 m. The cave is shaped like an inverted V, and has a winding, dark and extremely challenging tunnel that proceeds into the rock for a few dozen metres, which ultimately penetrates about fifty metres into the wall before ending in a large submerged chamber.

IMPORTANT. Divers must be experienced, must have their routes planned out, and must have proper cave diving equipment in order to venture into the cave: in addition to passageways completely shrouded in darkness, various ramifications are also encountered along the way. Without adequate preparation, it is recommended to limit yourself to exploring the initial section. Since the Grotta dei Gamberi is right on the outer boundary of the Capo Graziano archaeological zone, it is recommended to refrain from proceeding any further upon reaching the cave in order to avoid entering the protected area.

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.

CALA GADIR (archaeological itinerary)

Underwater archaeology for all skill levels

Cala Gadir offers itineraries that are suitable for divers with open water licenses, as well as more advanced divers. The dive begins near the first slipway, which reaches a depth of 6 m at the entrance corridor marked by yellow and white buoys. Heading about 20 m to the north, you will come to a rocky ridge.
