OUR TEAM

salvatore lombardo

Salvatore was born in northern Italy, at the foot of the mountains, into a family of emigrants from Favignana, a small island in the Sicilian Sea where all his ancestors lived from fishing.

After a life lived in an element that does not belong to him, he returned to the sea in 2010 completing the Dive Master Training and the Instructor Course in Sardinia.

From then on, he travelled the seas of the world working in Egypt, Mexico, Honduras, the Philippines, the Canary Islands, Thailand, but always returning to the sea he loves the most, the magical Mediterranean

A jack of all trades, Fanette traveled a lot after her studies. Reunion, Madagascar, woofing in the United States, Australia and Asia.

DISCOVERING AMPHITRITI

A short documentary about the first complete exploration of Amfitriti Cave in Paros, Greece.

Sara Goretta of the Cycladic Diving club discovered the cave and invited Cave Diving instructor George Vandoros to train her so she could explore the full depth of the cave. After an intense two-week complete cavern and cave course Sara realised her dream and explored the full length and depth of this sometimes lunar sometimes cathedral like salt water cave.

Underwater cinematographer Nassos Zervopoulos captures the preparation, training courses and full exploration of the cave with breath-taking imagery.
