Dive-site story
Located along the rocky Athenian Riviera, 1st Cove in Vouliagmeni serves as a primary training and recreational shore dive for Athens-based divers. Access involves descending a stone path down to a sheltered rocky inlet. Underwater, a gentle slope of sand and scattered boulders transitions into rocky drop-offs and posidonia seagrass patches as you exit the inlet.
Protected inlet offering calm waters suitable for training and refreshers
Sheltered rocky walls riddled with crevices hiding octopus and moray eels
Easy access for night diving along the inner reef perimeter
