Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Mirabello Bay near Agios Nikolaos and Elounda, this site features a sheer vertical rock face plunging into the blue Mediterranean. The limestone wall is riddled with fissures, small overhangs, and ledges where macro life shelters. Divers drift or swim alongside the drop-off, looking out into open water for pelagic visitors while checking cracks for resident morays and octopuses.
