Dragon Rock

RED PATH (up to -40 meters)
After the pre-dive check, for those who have a Cavern Patent, we will descend to the corner of the promontory where a vertical passage / siphon opens at -10 meters, created by a huge elongated and square boulder leaning against the wall with the exit at -23 mt. Or you can go down visually following the chain reaching the dead body at -27 mt. From here we will reach the wall and awning on our left we will begin our dive.
After the exit of the siphon on the left the wall begins where a deep crack opens in which it will be easy to see the muzzles Where the wall makes a belly we will detach ourselves and go to the
our right to patrol the rocks at a depth of -38 meters covered with beautiful gorgonians. Illuminating the base with the flashlight, we could meet a beautiful cat hiding in its lair.
We will return to the wall going up to an altitude of about -23 meters continuing in the direction taken previously crossing deep vertical cracks and ravines.
Once the long wall is finished, a landslide will begin consisting of large boulders at about -18 meters, among which we can easily meet brown groupers, corvine snappers, bream, barracuda, etc ..
Returning to the wall keeping it to our right at -12 meters we will fin to reach a horizontal split characterized by a colorful protruding roof covered internally by yellow Madrepora (Leptopsammia Pruvoti)
Now the wall makes a nice belly and at – 10 meters we will arrive above the entrance to the siphon. Since the chain is slightly distant from the wall, if the visibility is not optimal, after our stop of 3 mn at -5 m we will exit in the corner of the Promontory in complete safety.

GREEN PATH (up to -18 mt)
Since the buoy is slightly away from the Promontory we will fin on the surface until we reach a right angle drawn in the rock face. After the pre-dive check we will descend to reach a giant square boulder. Keeping the wall on our left we will fin up to the maximum depth of -18 meters. Numerous vertical cracks along the way
they hide various marine species. With the light of a flashlight it will be easier to spot them. Looking towards the open sea we will see schools of snappers hunting. A beautiful moray eel is swimming towards the other following the course of the wall. Once the long wall is finished, a landslide will begin consisting of large boulders at about -18 meters, among which we can easily meet brown groupers, corvine snappers, bream, barracuda, etc ..
