I found them of Vendicari are optimally lend to receive shapes of classified blue ecoturismo to all the ages. Fins, mask and areatore are sufficient in order to begin the exploration of this submarine Eden small.

Wrap coastal on the left of the Sveva tower does not introduce crosses fit for use for the bathing, while to right widths are opened spiagge that we do not advise like point of departure  for one excursion of I found them: the sabbioso bottom, than to the wide one becomes mixed to the limo with some pianticella of zostera does not offer granché. It then convene to put itself in water from one of the docks situated between old tonnara and the tower. Here the bottom introduces mixed sabbioso to cliff and posidonia, it does not exceed, for a width wrap, the 10 meters of depth, and accommodate praterie flourishing of posidonia, inhabited from fish, crustaceans and molluschi. We suggest to follow the coast towards the north; as soon as the time to fix the mask on the ace that muggini, allegros, fast, unmistakable in their silverplated livery, zigzagando, will give the welcome to you in waters of the Reservoir. Close to the bottom it will appear, endured after, some sarago S.Andrea (Diplodus vulgaris) a gregario fish that razzola often behind the triglie in order to feed itself of the worms that these, with their barbels, dig in tries of food. The several cavities accommodate species of blennidi that they love to sostare on the uscio: you will recognize the slavering gattoruggine (Blennius g.) from characteristic color the brown, slavering sfinge (the Blennius sphinx) with the damask livery and the smallest red and yellow chili peppers.

In spring and until june it is easy to meet more under the coast bizzarro between the cefalopodi: the small cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) an animal that seems way on a flying carpet and that it changes of color in continuation. Large exemplary also, until to 700 gr., are not not only hidden like ago the polpo, but they do not escape hasty alla.vista of the man: muovetevi slowly and they will remain to watch to you also for some ten of minuteren! The infrashoreline is rich of alghe tawny (most common the Padina pavonia) and red, of echinodermi  (stars and curly) and of granchiolini. Vendicari is above all the reign of the posidonia (posidonia oceanic), a marine plant that has flowers and yields, index of a healthy ecosystem. The prateria of posidonia carries out the most important role in the marine ecosystem: in the first place that one of "green lung" of the Mediterranean, producing, through the photosynthesis, enormous oxygen amounts, then like irreplaceable hiding place for all the avannotti, than between its long nastriformi leaves, find also abundant maintenance until to the adult age.

The "tapes" of posidonia, that they catch up the 80 cm., are group in "make us to you" of four or eight exemplary, held with from a stalk for good buried part. The reproduction happens through the fruits: It transports to you from the waves or from the currents, they will put their roots far away; the germination can also happen for "multiplication" through the increase of the stalk and the inner roots.

The eye, than in the meantime has been made expert, will be able to notice to you is common labbridi, that the sciarrani (S.scriba and cabrilla) and, very camouflaged between the sand and prateria, some polpo not large, the show of the salpe silverplated (with line gilded to the center) that sciamano to half water it is from not losing.
