Special features

The cliff, which connects to Alain's Cliff, offers a completely different experience and is as densely covered with gorgonians as almost no other dive site.

 

In the shallow water, one frequently discovers amphora shards from antiquity as well as lobsters and sea slugs among the fans.

 

Those who dive deeper have an increased chance of encountering rays and moray eels.

 

The dive begins in the southeastern part of the island at a depth of 5m.

After a short dive southward, you reach the first "step" from 7 to 15m.

 

From there, it goes to the cliff, where the vertical canyon begins.

The steep wall drops here in steps.

 

Dive centers often prefer drift dives at this site, which demonstrates how strong the current can be.
