Pelion Peninsula
The Pelion Peninsula offers a unique Greek diving experience, blending mythological landscapes with the clear waters of the Aegean Sea. Unlike the bustling island destinations, Pelion provides a more intimate and tranquil setting with its four primary dive sites. These sites are characterized by dramatic underwater rock formations, small caverns, and vibrant reefs. What makes this area truly special is the combination of lush, mountainous scenery above the surface and rich Mediterranean marine ecosystems below, offering an exploratory adventure for divers seeking something off the beaten path.
Diving conditions in Pelion are optimal from late spring through early autumn, featuring generally calm seas and excellent visibility that appeal to all certification levels. Beginners can enjoy the gentle, life-filled reefs, while experienced divers will appreciate navigating the interesting topography. Divers should visit Pelion not only for the underwater world but also for the authentic Greek culture found in its quiet coastal villages and traditional tavernas. It represents the perfect escape for a relaxing dive holiday away from the crowds.
