Dive-site story
Located offshore between Pissouri and Avdimou, this dramatic underwater geological formation is part of Cyprus's largest natural reef system. Divers descend onto an expansive submerged plateau that drops away into sheer vertical walls, punctuated by massive swim-through arches, deep crevices, and cavernous overhangs. The open-water setting attracts pelagic hunters alongside typical Eastern Mediterranean rocky reef dwellers.
Monumental rock archways and swim-throughs carved into the drop-off
Sheer vertical walls disappearing into deep blue water
Frequent sightings of large dusky groupers and amberjack hunting schools of damselfish
