La Montagna di Scilla
About La Montagna di Scilla
At the base of a prominent coastal rock formation, the seabed drops quickly to around 30–40 m where a submerged cliff begins. The highlight is a large, vertical spire known as “La Montagna,” rising roughly 20 m from the deeper area. The site is characterized by abundant coelenterates, with dense stands of two-colored gorgonians (Paramuricea clavata) covering the walls and giving the scenery a distinctly lush, reef-like appearance.
