Reach the detrital seabed at a depth of 15 meters and follow, perpendicularly to the coast, the slightly degrading profile of the seabed. Once you reach the 18 meters, you will find a steep slope shortly leading in front of the coralligenous wall of the lobsters, characterized by the presence of several gorgonians (Leptogorgia sarmentosa) covering it. The shoal ends on a muddy seabed at about 32 meters of depth. On the wall emerging from the seabed, it is possible to observe the several lobsters peeping through the several ravines.
