Boat-access rocky dive with varied relief and strong fish life
Boat access and reserve logistics make a local operator the practical way to dive it.
Les aiguilles de la Vacca is an arc-shaped extension of the Vacca rock in the Cerbicale Islands reserve, with several routes over a rocky seabed. It is a weather-dependent boat dive with strong fish life and a calm-window payoff when the sea is settled. Barracudas, groupers, corbs, nudibranchs, and flatworms are the main draw, and clear-water days make the rock routes easier to enjoy.
