The
depths of the Egadi Islands are amongst the richest in the Mediterranean
Sea. Amico mare offers snorkelling outings that allow to admire this
colourful and lively aquarium for those that are not familiar with
the diving gear. For those who wish to try to breath under water with
the necessary diving gear, their “baptism-at-sea” is swiftly
organized. For the certified divers, instead, each diving site offers
wonderful scenarios while the encounters with pelagic fishes, groupers,
lobsters, octopus, dentexes, sargos and the likes are very frequent.
Large, red branches of "gorgoniae" may be admired in just
a few feet of water, clinging to the rocky walls, decorated by algae
and coloured sponges.
