Italian plus SCUBA DIVING

Piccola Università Italiana - the Italian language school by the sea

Diving is an elementary experience of nature where new underwater dimensions unfold. The intense colours and the feeling of floating make the diver experience close to meditative relaxation...

...crystal clear water and approximate vision of about 30m are only a couple of the characteristics of diving along the coastline of Capo Vaticano. Divings fans here can choose from over 25 diving spots along the Tyrrhenian coast in Calabria.
