Cyprus is a great place for diving for all experience levels and has plenty of interesting underwater features such as caves, tunnels and rock formations. In the Ayia Napa and Protaras areas we are also lucky enough to have several man made features including an underwater statue gallery and 2 sunken wrecks. There's also plenty of marine life including turtles, octopus and rays.
One of the most popular dive sites is Green bay which has a shallow beach entrance making it easy to get in and out of the water. There are numerous other dive sites along the rocky coastline in the Cape Greco area which be easily reached and offer a great dive for all levels.
As well as the fascinating underwater landscape of the area, 2 boats have been sunk just off shore to create an artificial reef. A haven for marine life and a brilliant introduction to wreck diving, these boats give a unique dive location which can be explored by certified divers.
For experienced divers, the Zenobia wreck is word famous and one of the best wreck dive sites in the world. It is located just off the Larnaca coast and is absolutely fascinating.
All our guided dives are led by an experienced professional dive master from a PADI and SSI certified dive centre. All equipment is included.
Note: These dives are only available to PADI/ SSI certified divers. If you are not a certified diver and would like to try Scuba diving please see our Discover Scuba Diving Experience.

Liberty Wreck - Sunk in 2009, the Liberty was a small Russian cargo ship. It has an overall length of 37 metres and a width of 10metres. It's maximum depth is 28 meters.
Zenobia Wreck - This wreck dive is one of the best in the world due to it's size, depth, visibility and the water conditions. The vessel is a 172m long Swedish ferry boat that sank in 1980 on her maiden voyage due to technical problems that affected its stability. The boat was loaded with over 100 trucks and trailers, The wreck is lying between 42m and 16m. Many of the trucks are visible either lying on the seabed or still inside the vessel. The wreck lies just a few minutes boat journey from the shore near Larnaca. Because of it's size we usually do two dives on each trip.
