Here, you can find everything from common species, such as sea bream and sea bass, to rarer and more fascinating creatures, such as seahorses, octopuses and starfish. The seabed, made up of rocky reefs, algae and submerged caves, creates the perfect backdrop for vibrant and diverse underwater life.different: the scent of sea air mixed with that of wild herbs, the sound of waves breaking in the distance and the sight of an infinitely stretching horizon.
