Dive-site story
Situated along the rocky coastline of the Cape Greco National Park, The Canyon offers a dramatic descent through steep limestone walls and sunken corridors. The route guides divers through a sunken ravine that cuts directly into the seabed, opening up into expansive sand patches interspersed with boulders. Along the rock faces, pockets and crevices shelter Mediterranean critters, while ancient amphora shards embedded into the stone tell tales of historical maritime routes.
