About this site
Calarossa lies along the coastline near San Vito Lo Capo, at the northwestern tip of Sicily in the province of Trapani, where limestone headlands meet the Tyrrhenian side of the peninsula and dive sites are typically reached by boat from the town itself. Divers here have reported a rocky reef community that includes cushion coral, star coral, pig-tooth coral, yellow and white gorgonians, and yellow cluster anemones, along with Atlantic purple sea urchins and European spiny lobsters tucked into the rock crevices.
