About this dive site

This dive site is located just a few minutes' walk from the dive center and rests on the secluded Vizakia Beach. The location offers an easy entry into the bay, ideal for preparing equipment before descending into the clear Mediterranean waters. Divers can access a rocky canyon that descends to approximately 5 meters depth. Within this canyon, a diverse array of marine life thrives, including damselfish, wrasse, fangtooth morays, goatfish, jacks, and even lionfish. The canyon continues deeper, reaching around 10 meters before the dive concludes. This leisurely dive typically lasts over an hour, providing ample opportunity to explore the underwater landscape and observe the fascinating creatures inhabiting this coastal area. Returning to the comfort of the dive center with a well-deserved iced coffee is a delightful reward.
