Scuba diving at Sasso che bara

This sandbank is just off the promontory of Capo Stella and reaches a depth of 35 m in no time at all.

You will reach the bottom very quickly where you will see the shipwreck of a small, wooden motor boat. Once here you can start heading back to the surface in a spial sort of manner, going round and round the sandbank that is shaped like a cone.

At a depth of approximately 15 m you will have more or less reached the tip that is covered in parazoanthus, and that means your scuba diving has come to an end.

Scuba diving here is breathtaking if you do it at night.
