Further information
Our Snorkeling Tours are guided excursion for a group of snorkellers in specific spots
We have created about 10 snorkelling routes around the island, of biologic, geologic and archaeologic interest.
The Cave Snorkelling Tour is an exclusive excursion in Ustica offered by anyone else.
There are 6 marine grottoes that are also part of the classical boat tours arranged by local operators, but none of them stop longer than a short bath. More than that, we have spotted other 2 marine grottoes that are accessible only by snorkeling, and reachable better by boat.
the snorkelling Guide will introduce you to the features of the cave and other attractions.
Warning: caves are not underwater! They have an air chamber and are always illuminated by the light coming from the entrance. Nevertheless, the Guide is equipped with a light to show you some interesting details in dark areas.
