About Canalone
Canalone is a boat-accessed gully dive in Apulia, best known for its narrow channel shape and easy turn when you reach the sand. The route stays tight and readable, with rock on both sides and a straightforward return through the gully. It is a conditions-sensitive dive: calmer late-spring to early-autumn windows are friendlier, while winter wind and current can make the return less forgiving.
