Cala Galera
Ustica shore dive with a volcanic cove, wall, and rich fish life.

Mixed-difficulty volcanic cove dive with a beginner-friendly line and a deeper wall route.
About Cala Galera
Cala Galera is a clear-water Ustica shore dive built around a volcanic lava tongue that splits the cove and gives the site a layered feel. The easy line works well for training and relaxed dives, while the deeper wall and arch sections add more structure, more marine life, and a stronger need for buoyancy control as you move away from the shallower cove water.
