Secca dei mattoni - Naples & Campania

Secca dei Mattoni is a nice introduction to diving in the Bay of Naples, especially if you’re just getting comfortable in the Mediterranean. Dropping to a gentle 23 metres, it’s a site that suits beginners well, giving you space to relax without battling strong currents. We often find playful damselfish darting between the rocks and the occasional moray eel peeking from a crevice. It’s a pleasant, easy dive, perfect for a relaxed afternoon under the Italian sun.
