Shrimps Cave

SHRIMPS CAVE

DIVING AMONG THE CANYON AND THE CAVES

 

The diving point is at 8 minutes sailing from our diving center, under a little Norman tower in Scalo Pennisi; moored on a 12 meters sea bottom, exactly on the cliff full of living beings that marks the way to get to the cave, after 10 minutes diving at a 25 meters depth in front of us the Cave of Shrimps, so called because of the presence of red shrimps in the inside. The passage through the cave is really touching: the cave is full of sponges and typical cave’s fauna. When leaving the cave and after checking the quantity of air in the cylinder we head towards a series of really suggestive Canyon, among which rifts big examples of Muraies, Scorpionfish, lobsters and big groupers live.
After diving on all the Canyons we head towards route 330°, it’s saying land, among clouds of damselfishes and groups of goldlines, until the big “panettone” that marks the point of diving again.
