Dive-site story
Situated along the dramatic southeastern coastline of Rhodes, diving off Lindos features steep limestone drop-offs and jagged underwater topography. The underwater terrain presents cavernous overhangs and swim-throughs formed by ancient coastal erosion. Marine creatures take shelter inside the rocky fissures, surrounded by open blue water that offers expansive sightlines across the vertical face.
