San Simone 3

Also known as: San Simone III

Blu Tek calls it Marettimo's archaeological dive par excellence because of the Roman amphora, the stone anchor and the more recent anchors of the tonnara lying on the seabed. A large canyon formed by a boulder covered with cup corals and encrusting sponges attracts many nudibranchs throughout the season. At the end of the route small passages hide large slipper lobsters, and groupers shelter in the nearby small caves.
