    Scilla offers a solid Mediterranean dive for those exploring Ustica. You’ll find typical rocky reef structure, with a good chance of spotting moray eels tucked into crevices and schools of barracuda cruising overhead. It’s a good choice for divers looking for a relaxed exploration rather than dramatic topography. We’d say it’s a reliable spot for a second dive of the day.
