I love diving around Sicily, and Palermo is wonderful, but while there are serviceable dives not too far from the city, I wouldn‘t go out of my way for them. There‘s a good spot about 30-40 mins due East by car off Porticello (Secca della Formica); there‘s a good diveshop in Porticello that has Nitrox. But anything on the coast gets pretty crowded in summer; don‘t expect untouched nature…Hi there, I am planning to get my Nitrox license in the summer and am wondering if there are any good dive stores in Palermo that someone can vouch for. How is the diving there in general? Is it worth it?
