This dive site features a dramatic underwater landscape shaped by volcanic activity, with a wall descending deep into the blue. Divers can explore impressive rock formations, canyons, and sometimes witness gas bubbles from submarine fumaroles, a unique Ischian phenomenon. The rich volcanic substrate supports a high density of marine life.
