Browsed itineraries of Sicily and discover the wonders above and below the water of a timeless island
SICCHITEDDA ‘NGRANA
The dive starts at a depth of 10 to 12 m on top of the shoal, where the seabed is characterised by rocks forming a number of pinnacles. Swim to the north-west until you come to a short but steep ciliate at a depth of 20 m, on a seabed covered with sandy detritus. To the south-west, a short canal separates a large rock outcropping from the shoal itself. Swimming through it, you will reach the maximum depth of 23 m. Beneath this south-eastern ciliate, the shoal features several indentations where the sea floor is covered by sand.
