Agia Pelagia Diving Sites

We begin the cave diving adventure with a short wall dive in the blue waters of El Greco to arrive at the entrance to this fascinating marine cave at a depth of 17 meters.

The cave is approximately 30 meters in length, with an opening height and width of approximately 10m and core height and depth of approximately 7m. This gradual passage into the cave allows both new and experienced cavern divers time to adjust to their new environment and enjoy a feast for the eyes as we encounter the incredible variety of colourful fauna and flora it has to offer.

Beautiful stalagmites and stalactites can be found. On other places fresh water is floating in from the ceiling and creates a really fascinating optical iridescence when coming in contact with the saltwater.

At the rear end you will find a vertical siphon (opening). By using a rope you ascent through the tunnel until you reach the cave's top which includes an air-filled room. You can even have a sit-down here and enjoy the fascinating view!

This cave is an ideal start for advanced divers who are interested in cave-diving:

1. The big size of this cave permits the simultaneous entrance to at least 8 divers.
2. The straight course through the cave allows constant optical contact to the exit.
3. The bottom consists of hard stone-sand, in this way the visibility stays clear of whirled up sand.
4. There is no danger for the diver to get trapped or entangled.
