Prasonisi

About this dive site

This dive site is located at Prasonisi, a beautiful area in Rhodes, Greece. The dive begins on the southwest side of a reef, which can be explored in a clockwise loop. The underwater scenery transitions from a sandy, rocky bottom with Posidonia seagrass to a striking black and red rocky wall, featuring charming overhangs and corals. Navigating the dive is straightforward, following the reef's natural contours.

The diverse marine life includes a variety of soft corals, sponges, and anemones. You'll likely encounter schools of damselfish, and potentially see larger fish like amberjacks. The reef provides habitats for various small creatures ideal for macro photography.

The best time to visit is during the warmer months (June to October), when visibility is typically high and the water is calm. Divers and freedivers alike will appreciate the varied landscape and abundant marine life. However, be mindful of any mild currents and maintain awareness of your depth, especially around the overhangs.
