Baia di MazzaròTaormina
na granicidanas izložen mrtvom moru u lice (razina grada)
- prozor
- A loaded speargun out of the water is prohibited: you load below and unload before coming out. Recreational catch may not be sold, in any quantity. With Levante forecast to strengthen it pays to go earlier rather than to stay longer. The last stretch, the 280 m out to ten metres of water, is the one you will swim tired: put it in the day's arithmetic.
- plima
- High water pushed by Levante counts for more than a spring tide. Between the shore and five metres of water there are 280 m, and no tide shifts that line appreciably. The way back, 280 m to the five-metre band, is decided beforehand and not on the way. At Taormina the level changes little, but the current towards the east can be noticeable in the channels.
- zaklon
- The opening to the east is wide: no nearby storm is needed here, an old sea from that sector is enough. In a bay like this the shelter is a few tens of metres wide, tucked against the windward point rather than in the middle of the arc, and in a hard Levante not even that. If the swell starts working inside the 280 m of coastal strip, the session is over. At Taormina the difference between a bad day and a good one is a hundred metres of coast, not an hour of waiting.
