Golfo Aranci boat cave dive with granite swim-throughs.
Boat-access cave dive from Golfo Aranci; a local operator is the normal way to manage the route and timing.
Moon Valley is a boat-access cave dive in Golfo Aranci with granite swim-throughs, cavern openings, and a maze-like route that rewards careful navigation. The site is about rock structure and light management rather than brute depth, and it is best approached as an advanced day-dive with route markers, lights, and a calm window. Expect the dive to feel more like moving through a compact underwater labyrinth than cruising an open reef.
