Salt and diesel fog the air as the rib peels away from the quay and the headland of Capo Carbonara grows in the windshield — a block of limestone and wind-sculpted scrub flanked by clear blue that dares you over the rail. On this package you join guided outings that run either in the morning (08:30–13:13) or afternoon (15:00–19:30), each exit offering two dives inside the Capo Carbonara Marine Protected Area.

History
The coastline around Villasimius has long been a fishing landscape; traditional practices and archaeological sites dot the shore while the MPA regulates modern marine use to protect habitats.
Conservation
Capo Carbonara is managed to protect Posidonia meadows and reef communities — divers are asked to follow no-touch rules, avoid anchoring on sensitive bottoms, and support local operators who follow sustainable practices.
Reserve your spot on the package of 6 double dives in the Capo Carbonara Marine Protected Area today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring your certification and logbook
Operators will check diver credentials; bring an up-to-date logbook and dive computer to track no‑decompression limits.
Protect Posidonia seagrass
Avoid fin kicks and never touch the seabed—good buoyancy prevents damage to protected seagrass beds.
Plan for seas and sun
Even short crossings expose you to sun and wind—pack reef‑safe sunscreen and a light windproof layer for the boat.
Confirm gear rental and costs in advance
If you need full scuba kit, reserve ahead and budget the local supplement (operator lists equipment rental available for €102).
Dive computer
Required to monitor depth and no‑decompression limits across two dives per outing.
Mask and snorkel
Personal fit reduces fogging and improves surface comfort between dives.
Shorty or full wetsuit (3–7mm)
Water temperatures vary by season; a suit keeps you comfortable and reduces nitrogen uptake.
