About this dive site

While no specific history is provided, divers can expect to navigate along interesting rock formations and explore the diverse topography of this lengthy underwater bar, which typically involves following the reef contour.

The marine life here is particularly appealing to macro photographers, with a rich variety of nudibranchs and vibrant white gorgonians adorning the rocks. Divers will also encounter diverse rock fauna, including various invertebrates and small crustaceans, alongside a good selection of passing reef fish.

The site is considered a good spot for enjoying its rich small stuff, making it suitable for divers of all experience levels, including beginners, due to its manageable depths. While specific best times aren't stated, Mediterranean diving is generally good from spring through autumn. Freedivers and snorkelers will also find the shallower parts of the site rewarding for observing the colorful macro life and rock formations.
