Grotte Del Formaggio (Cheese Caves) - Sicily - Italy




Going towards the cape "Capo Murro" in Siracusa Italy, you will meet many caves outcropping the surface. One of the most interesting one for divers is "Grotta del Formaggio" (the Cheese Cave), so named because of several holes that are housing many tiny fish and crustaceans, which have found here their natural habitat.The entrance of the cave lies at 10 meters and continuing down up to 20 meters.
