Punta Secca (Tremiti)

Site Overview

Punta Secca on the Tremiti Islands is a sheer wall dropping into clear Adriatic water, one of the richest dives in the Italian Adriatic. Red gorgonians, groupers and barracuda cover the rock, and the protected marine park keeps the life abundant. The moderate current often brings the pelagics in, rewarding divers who plan around slack water. It is a signature site of the Tremiti and a favourite for photographers, combining dramatic scenery with healthy Mediterranean reef in a protected setting. The site rewards careful planning, good buoyancy and a respect for Italy’s marine-protection rules, and remains a favourite among Mediterranean divers.
