    StandoutDramatic pinnacle topography

    Off San Pietro offers a classic Ustica dive. You’ll find volcanic rock formations creating interesting swim-throughs and small caves, perfect for exploring with a torch. Look closely for moray eels tucked into crevices and colorful nudibranchs on the walls. It’s a solid spot for divers who enjoy topography and macro life without strong currents.
