"Located between Procida and Ischia, this reef is of significant biological interest due to the biodiversity to be found here. The peak lies at 8 m, which is where the dive begins. Of particular note is a submerged natural archway through which the sun's rays penetrate creating fantastic lighting effects. The typical current at the site supports the rich variety of flora and fauna. Underwater photography is strongly recommended at this location."

"Diverse pillars presumably providing protection to Portus Julius. Between the pillars, which are richly colonised and have abundant flora and fauna, there are numerous active fumaroles which attest the volcanic origin of this area. The fumaroles are columns of gaseous bubbles which escape from the sea bed depositing sulphur which covers the surrounding sea floor. "

"Walls emerge from the sea-bed at depth of 21m and rise up to -12m. Diving along walls and through canyons, there is a wonderful display of yellow and white sea fans and the area is abundant with crayfish, lobsters, octopi, lair fish (e.g. groupers and sea bream) and migratory fish (e.g. dentex and rudderfish). "

"A small reef shaped like a twin tower. At 20 meters and we went down to about 30 m. VERY good visiblity, temp of water comfortable. The second dive which I didn't manage to go on was to a statue of Christ at the very point of the Portofino Pennisula."
