The turtle shaped island of Ustica off the north coast of Sicily is not only a pleasant day escape from the hustle and bustle of Sicily's capital Palermo, although it is best to be explored over few days, Ustica is also one of the best diving areas in the whole Mediterranean Sea.
Ustica is, like nearly all islands that are scattered around Sicily, of volcanic origin, boasting rugged and rocky coastlines, sea caves and an amazing underwater world with colourful fish and other sea creatures. Its sparkling clear waters are perfect for scuba diving and it is actually considered the diving capital of Sicily. So if you like all things submersible grab your fins and mask and head over.
There are quite a few nice accommodations and great seafood restaurants.
