The MPA of Ustica is the oldest of Italy. There are 15 dive sites offering various itineraries. Enjoy the caves where big groupers hide, the canyons and endless passages with splendid colour plays of “Il Medico” dive.
Be amazed by the clouds of barracuda’s and big pelagic that swim around the wreck of “Colombara”. Explore the reef of “Falconiera” looking for critters or admire the colonies of shrimps of the “Grotta dei Gamberi” cave.
Travel into the past by following one of the archaeological underwater routes at the “Secca d’Africa”. Perfect dives for either beginner or an experienced levels.
Diving season is from half April until end of October. Winter season is difficult, mostly due to uncertainty of boat transfers to and from the island of Ustica.
