Description

Discover Ustica through its sea. The experience takes place at Cala Sidoti, in Zone A of Italy's first Marine Protected Area, and allows you to observe the richness of Ustica's marine environment firsthand. Accompanied by Vittorio Arnò, a nature guide and island guide, you will explore the shallow waters with a mask and snorkel, observing marine life from the surface. You'll be able to discover the lairs of groupers, the meadows of Posidonia oceanica, sea bream, sea urchins and many other organisms that inhabit the sea around Ustica. The goal is not simply to see fish, but to learn to recognize the habitats and understand how marine organisms live and interact with each other. Vittorio accompanies the observation with explanations, fun facts and anecdotes, with a simple and informal approach: you observe, discover and learn while having fun. The activity is easy and is designed for an observation experience from the surface, with no need to go underwater or even to know how to swim. The experience is offered by Escursioni Ciprea Ustica, an activity that has received numerous positive reviews, testifying to visitors' appreciation of the experiences offered and the way in which Ustica is presented and made known. N.B.: In the event of bad weather, you will either move to another permitted bathing area that is sheltered or reschedule the snorkeling for a better day; in this case, the booking will be canceled with a full refund.
