    Capo Gallo on Ustica offers some interesting Mediterranean diving, particularly for those who appreciate rocky topography and the creatures that inhabit it. You'll likely find moray eels tucked into crevices, some scorpionfish camouflaged on the rocks, and schools of damselfish flitting about. It's a solid choice for a relaxing dive when you're looking for something reliable, rather than spectacular. We'd suggest it for divers who enjoy exploring reef structure and don't need big pelagics to be happy.
