About this dive site

This dive site is a remarkable cave/cavern of historical significance, dramatically impacted by the Santorini Tsunami. The site features a massive underwater cave system; approximately half has been destroyed while the other half remains intact and accessible for diving. The destruction created a complex network of caverns and ravines offering three distinct dives. This impressive location presents an exciting exploration opportunity. Visibility will vary depending on conditions, but it's considered a worthwhile dive for those seeking unique underwater experiences.
