POSIDONIA OCEANICA FLOWERING - USTICA ISLAND, DECEMBER 2022
We are happy to have been able to observe live this phenomenon!

"The species Posidonia oceanica is endemic to the Mediterranean Sea. It forms extensive underwater meadows that grow on rocks and sandy bottoms in clean water from the surface to over 40 meter depth.
Posidonia oceanica can also flower under the sea. This event occurs infrequently during autumn every five to ten years. Its green flowers, hidden under the leaves, offer a rare spectacle for divers. " *
