At about 50 meters deep, the experience becomes even more fascinating with unpredictable encounters with large groupers moving among the branches of gerardia savaglia and other invertebrates like melon sea urchins and pencil sea urchins.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Difficulty level:<\/strong> Intermediate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Required certification: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/en\/product\/deep-diving\/\">Deep Diver<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10682 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/secca-mezzo-canale.jpeg\" alt=\"diving toscana\" width=\"997\" height=\"646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/secca-mezzo-canale.jpeg 997w, https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/secca-mezzo-canale-300x194.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/secca-mezzo-canale-768x498.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.argentariodivers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/secca-mezzo-canale-600x389.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 997px) 100vw, 997px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2.
