Canyons

A great dive for all levels of divers, generally with no current. Even with the north winds and choppy water that Paros is notorious for, the south side of Dryonisi is calm, flat, and protected. The dive itself has a different topography from other sites, the rocks are sharper and more jagged.

The name tells it all, a fun little dive with a max depth of 12 meters, lovely swim around, some great rock formations, lots of marine life, especially damselfish, and some nice historical Amphora.

This site is a lovely protected bay, great for all types of dives, including course training. This dive site has it all. Shallow sand bottom with huge rock boulders, wall drop off and crevice, which all create a pleasant adventurous and scenic dive.

At the southern tip of Makronisi Island, this site is where you can often see little barracuda (Loutsa). You begin the dive cruising the Western wall southwards at about 5-6 meters. There is a crevice in the reef tongue which extends from the south side of the island; this is where you cross over to the eastern side.

An excellent sandy bottom dive for beginners, try scuba diving, and open water diver courses, with very calm waters and excellent visibility. No currents and you can usual spot great marine life in the sandy bottom.

A beautiful reef which can be dived all the way around. Begin on the southwest side and work your way around clockwise. From sandy, rocky bottom with scattered Posidonia Grass, the scenery changes to a more black and red colored, rocky wall with nice little overhangs and corals.

Twenty minutes from Golden Beach. The cove is protected in case of north wind. The wall drop until 25+ meters and is protected from current. We can observe some amphoras, rest from the wooden wreck back in the Pirate era of Paros.

A favorite local dive, this dive starts dropping slowly down to 8 meters in a easy, relaxed way, where you will find the wall. Huge rock formations turn into a steep wall with a massive overhang full of soft corals and brilliant colors.

This dive can be done either diving deep along the wall first, then entering the cave, or following shallower along the wall before entering the cave. The cave is spectacular and is accessible underwater through a massive opening. You can then surface inside the cave to see the magnificent stalactites.

Cathedral is a spectacular wall dive. The name was given because when the sun beams hit the unique wall shapes and formations, it gives a feeling of diving through a huge Cathedral.
