Dive-site story
Set along the sheltered coastline of Avdimou Bay near Pissouri, this shallow coastal site features a mix of scattered boulders, rocky ledges, and patches of Posidonia seagrass. Calm surface conditions and gentle sloping topography make it a frequent choice for introductory training, refresher dives, and unhurried macro exploration. Divers navigate through rocky channels where small crevices harbor Mediterranean critters and juvenile fish taking shelter from open water.
Protected bay offering relaxed navigation along rocky gullies and sandy channels
Frequent encounters with common octopuses and cuttlefish hunting across the seagrass beds
Ideal terrain for macro photography and night diving when nocturnal invertebrates emerge
Location
