About Sec d’Ulysse
Sec d’Ulysse is a Bonifacio boat dive over broken rock, trenches, and broad Posidonia meadows. The route is more of a slow search along relief than a single wall, so buoyancy and patient scanning matter more than speed. Plan it as a settled-weather outing with a local operator and an experienced scuba team. Large groupers and dense fish life are the main draw, with the reserve adding barracuda and other Mediterranean species.
