About this site
Barcarello lies on the coast near Palermo, on the Sicilian shore facing the Tyrrhenian Sea, close to the Mondello and Capo Gallo area of the Province of Palermo. This stretch of coastline is known for its rocky inlets and small coves used by local dive operators. Divers here have reported Atlantic purple sea urchins and Mediterranean damselfish among the rocks, along with pig-tooth coral, star coral, and white gorgonian gracing the reef structure.
