Easily accessible from the Punta Bassana wall, the hollow rock is a medium-sized rock lying on a sandy bottom and rises up to 20 meters from the surface. The approach is more or less short depending on the anchor point of our boat. At 36 meters, centered in the middle of the rock, we find the entrance to a cave.

Easily accessible from the Punta Bassana wall, the hollow rock is a medium-sized rock lying on a sandy bottom and rises up to 20 meters from the surface. The approach is more or less short depending on the anchor point of our boat. At 36 meters, centered in the middle of the rock, we find the entrance to a cave. At first, it's worth spending a few minutes taking advantage of the snappers that watch over the entrance. Curiosity leads us to illuminate every corner, up, to the right and to the left, and if we are lucky enough to wait for us at the bottom of a tunnel there will be the true master of this place: a large lobster. Above our head branches of red gorgonians cover the entire rock up to its cap. If the current permits, we finish the dive browsing among the boulders set in the channel that separates the hollow rock from the wall because this is where scorpion fish and lobsters hide, but not only shiny cowries and shy musdelle.
