At about 1000 meters from the coast of Addaura, between the village of Acquasanta and Mondello, there is a ripple that runs parallel to the coast that varies from 25 to 45 meters deep.

Místo se nachází na severním okraji Prioly na bathymetrické asi 30 metrů v přírodním amfiteátru. Tam byla umístěna socha Krista, která dělá scenérii okouzlující. Zde je vidět přítomnost kanice, havranů a velkých cejnů.

Pár set metrů od přístavu Isola delle Femmine se nachází trosky německého letounu Junkers 52. Byl sestřelen v dubnu 1943 a nyní leží ve hloubce 46 metrů na písečném dně.

The top of the shoal is between 8 m and 15 m deep, for about 300 metres in length, with its flattened ovoid shape, more or less parallel to the coast and about 300 metres away from it. It offers a conformation rich in ravines, small and large hollow caves, imposing rocks and walls.

Tato potápěčská lokalita je dobrá pro všechny druhy potápěčů. K dispozici je jeskyně (ne zcela pod vodou) a pěkná stěna, kde je maximální hloubka 25 metrů.

Entering from the shore, you’ll find the bottom covered in fine white sand that slopes steeply towards the depths of the Strait of Messina, reaching 40 meters just a few steps from the beach. The sea bed, in crystal clear water, is animated by thousands of great spirographs, among which are often seahorses and trumpet fish.

On a seabed between 30 and 55m, at the narrowest point of the Strait of Messina, lies the wreck of Cannitello, known as “U Vapuri“ and identified with the ship “Alvah“, sunk in the early 1900s. The hull is placed upside down on the seabed that degrades rapidly, divided into two sections, and is covered in life!

This die site sits amongst the rock cliffs around the fortress of the Ruffo Castle of Scilla and is characterized by crystal clear water, rich biodiversity, and numerous small canyons and inlets. Around the landslide, which from the surface reaches about 22/25 m deep, lies an expanse of white and luminous sand.

At Saline Joniche, with access from a wide beach of pebbles and sand, there is a small cliff with vertical falls from 8m to 20m, with a sandy bottom and subsequent rock slide, covered with a variety of algae and sponges. At a shallow depth, under a small cave, there is a statue of Jesus, covered in sea life.

Wied il-Mielah je fantastický ponor lodí do skrytého severního Azurového okna. K dispozici jsou 3 jeskyně s fantastickým světlem, slavný švýcarský sýr proplavat, a labyrint mezi balvany. Vše mezi 9 m a 25 m, což je ideální ponor pro méně zkušené potápěče.
