Kohi Beach

About this dive site

This dive site is located at Kohi Beach in Greece, a beautiful blue flag beach offering easy shore access to a relatively shallow dive. The underwater landscape is primarily sandy, with a small reef located in one corner providing the main point of interest. Navigation is straightforward, with the reef serving as a clear landmark. There is no known specific history or story associated with this particular dive site, but the clear water makes it a great spot for beginners.

The marine life is varied, consisting mainly of schooling fish such as sardines, mullet (kefalos), sea bass (lavrakia), and needlefish (zarganes), along with other smaller species like damsels. The abundance of small fish makes it particularly suitable for underwater photography, especially macro. While larger fish may occasionally pass through, the main attraction lies in the diversity and concentration of smaller inhabitants.

The best time to visit Kohi Beach for diving is during the summer months (June-September), when the water is warmest and clearest, offering optimal visibility. For freedivers, the shallow depth and calm conditions are ideal for practicing various techniques. Divers should note that while currents are generally mild, it's always recommended to check local conditions before entering the water.
