The Crests

On a bushy posidonia grassland there are three large granitic blocks lined up as a cock crest, with wonderful red sponges (spirastrelle) on the side walls. On the top of the crests, with a depth between 16 m and 25 m, it’s possible to admire some schools of Anthias often with big Dentex and Seriola running after them. Hidden in the posidonia grassland there are many archeological finds, small fragments and a big roman lead anchor which make this dive particulary interesting. Many Diplodus vularis, Sciaena umbra and murey eels find their natural habitat inside the archeological rests and in the rock fractures. This is a middle difficulty dive.
