About this dive site

This dive site is located at Kelifos Island in Greece and offers a stunning wall dive experience. The dive site is characterized by its relatively shallow maximum depth of 23 meters, making it accessible to divers of all experience levels. The lack of strong currents further enhances its suitability for beginners and experienced divers alike. Navigating the site is straightforward, following the wall down to your desired depth before exploring the rich marine life and diverse habitats the wall supports.

The marine life at Kelifos Island is abundant and varied, typical of the Mediterranean Sea. Divers can expect to see a multitude of fish species, including groupers, tuna, octopus, moray eels, and a wide array of smaller reef fish. Soft and hard corals also contribute to the vibrant underwater scenery. The site offers opportunities for both macro and wide-angle photography, with ample subjects for both styles.

The best time to visit Kelifos Island is during the summer months (June-September) when the water is warmest and visibility is generally at its best. While there are no strong currents, divers should always check local weather conditions and be aware of potential changes in water temperature. Freedivers will find this a suitable location for exploration due to the manageable depth and calm conditions; however, it’s always advisable to dive with a buddy and respect depth limitations.
