The outermost and deepest of the three Ullastres - as we had two dives planned for the day we opted for Nitrox 33 (32.4 MOD) and decided to keep the dive at 30m max. Descended the north face and from 20m onwards the wall is covered with amazing gorgonians accompanied with a school of anthias (tres colas). One moray hiding between the gorgonians. Circled clockwise yet decided to turn back before reaching the south side - which is more rocky - which ended up being a mistake as the rest of the group had seen various John Dorys, a mola mola had appeared a few times and they spotted a tuna. Perhaps next time start from the south side - there will be time for the gorgonians later. The south side also had a nice surprise of a Mediterranean basket star just exposed in the perfect position to pose for pictures. The second half of the dive was about enjoying the shallower parts, with unintimidated sargos, schools of damselfish and bogues.
