About this dive site
This dive site is located a short boat ride, less than ten minutes from Aghios Nikolaos Port, heading west towards the small cape of Pleora. It offers an intriguing dive with a fascinating history: remnants of two airplane engines rest at a depth of 20-22 meters. The dive begins on a wall and then follows a reef that gradually descends to a maximum depth of 40 meters as it extends northeast toward the open sea. You’ll find a diverse underwater environment teeming with life, including various fish such as groupers, octopuses, moray eels, barracuda, and numerous smaller schooling fish. Large anemones, sponges, and other marine vegetation also contribute to this vibrant ecosystem. This is an ideal dive for both beginners and experienced divers alike.
