Dive-site story
Located within the Capo Caccia marine reserve along northwestern Sardinia, this site drops along vertical limestone contours carpeted in fan corals. Divers drift along rocky ledges where seafans project outward into clear blue water, with schooling pelagics frequently passing above the drop-off.
Sheer limestone walls draped in dense fields of red and yellow gorgonian fans
Resident dusky groupers and moray eels hiding in rocky crevices
Schools of damselfish and sea bream swirling over the coralligenous substrate
