Marettimo

Marettimo is a small island off the western coast of Sicily in the Tyrrhenian Sea. It’s a low-key gateway for divers exploring the western Sicilian coast, with a single local dive center and access to nearby dive sites reachable by boat. The island’s simple infrastructure and calm seas make it suitable for relaxed dives or beginner courses when conditions permit. Overall, Marettimo is more notable as a nature-filled island destination with limited local diving activity, rather than a major dive hub.
