Arrival at Lido Cala Paura

The sun was just beginning to cast its golden glow over the tranquil waters of Polignano a Mare as I arrived at Lido Cala Paura.

Suiting up in my diving gear, I felt the familiar thrill of anticipation. The moment I slipped beneath the surface, I was enveloped in a world of serene beauty. The sun’s rays danced through the crystal-clear water, illuminating the vibrant seabed below. As I descended, I was greeted by a kaleidoscope of marine life, each creature more fascinating than the last.

At around six meters, I encountered the iconic statue of the Virgin Mary, a revered landmark among divers. Surrounded by schools of curious fish, it was a sight to behold. Further along, I marveled at the scorpionfish and the mesmerizing dance of fish schools weaving through the water. The highlight of the dive was navigating through a stunning underwater cave, where the play of light and shadow created an otherworldly atmosphere.
