Why dive here
With 60+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, sea turtles and sperm whales - LCT offers some of Ustica's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 15-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
The LCT wreck in Ustica sits shallow, a mere 5 meters down, making it an easy, relaxed dive. We found it perfect for extended bottom times, really letting you soak in the details of the landing craft. Schools of damselfish flit around the metal structure, which has become a stable home for smaller groupers and moray eels. It’s an ideal spot for macro photography or for newer divers getting comfortable with wrecks without the pressure of depth.
