Parete delle Gorgonie, or Gorgonian Wall, is a classic Ustica dive. We drop onto a reef that slopes gently before a dramatic wall, thick with red gorgonians. Keep an eye out for resident groupers peering from crevices and small moray eels. It’s a good choice for divers comfortable with a deeper profile, usually descending to around 30 meters to appreciate the best of the wall.
