Dive-site story
Located near the entrance to the Akamas Peninsula, White River offers a shore dive defined by limestone channels and gullies cutting through white sand. Divers follow a series of underwater ravines carved into the seabed that open up to gentle reef terraces. The terrain provides shelters for Mediterranean marine species while keeping navigation straightforward along the natural rocky gullies.
Natural limestone ravines and sand gullies running perpendicular to the shoreline
Overhangs and rock crevices harboring Mediterranean macro subjects
Frequent encounters with foraging sea turtles over the sandy patches
