Why dive here
With 60+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, sea turtles and sperm whales - S ANTONIO offers some of Ustica's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 15-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
The S Antonio wreck lies at 22 metres, a small fishing boat now broken into two main sections. We’ve found moray eels and large groupers settled in amongst the plates. Visibility here is usually decent, making it a good spot for newer wreck divers or those looking for a relaxed second dive. Just be aware that strong currents can pick up occasionally.
