Overview of Scuba Diving in Greece
Once one of the world’s most powerful nations, Greece has always had a strong connection to the sea. This collection of some 1400 islands has fought and won battles across its oceans as far back as 3200BC, conquering Persia, Minoa, and Mycenae along the way. These days, there may not be maritime battles of Herculean proportions waging when you visit, but the seas are still very much a focal point for travelling divers and snorkelers.
The craggy outline of mainland Greece juts out into a smattering of small islands that wend their way through the Ionian, Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. Popular as tourist holiday hotspots, the islands are also a mecca for scuba divers, with plenty of dive sites to choose from suitable for all ages and abilities. While the warm weather of the Mediterranean climate has allowed interesting marine life to develop around these waters, many of the sites also hold specific cultural interest that is fascinating to divers.
Dive shops and sites are located all over the islands, and each chain offers something a little different. Santorini, one of the Cyclades Islands, lies in the Aegean Sea and is home to a large number of dive sites off its shores, including House Reef, Mansell and Old Volcano, three locations that range from an easy beach reef dive, to a 200ft wall. Further south, the island of Crete touches the Mediterranean, and divers have over twenty sites ranging in difficulty to choose from. This popular holiday island, a traditional winter escape for Europeans, has wreck and cave dives to discover, and plenty of dive shops to choose from. Back on the mainland and just north of Athens, a protected bay harbours waters known as the Pagasetic Gulf. Over ten sites are dotted around this curving inland saltwater bay, and divers flock here to visit the beach dive of Kato Gatzea, a lovely drift and reef dive just outside the pretty Greek village by the same name.
Divers heading to Greece should be aware of certain restrictions though. Until 2005, it was actually fairly difficult to dive anywhere in Greece. The government had difficulty controlling the looting that was taking place, so an almost blanket ban meant that around 90% of their waters were off-limits for recreational divers. They’ve since had a change of heart, and diving is now widely acciessible, leading to a healthy rise in the number of dive shops available. There are, however, certain rules that have come along with this new freedom. Night dives, for instance, are only allowed if a guide from a certified centre is in attendance. Solo diving is strictly prohibited, regardless of experience, and divers must have a qualification from a governing body (like PADI) that’s recognised in Greece. Of course, training courses from Greek dive centres are allowed for novice divers. What makes Greece so exciting for divers is that with the relaxation of the rules still so fresh, there are hundreds of new sites being discovered every month.
Diving in Greece is great throughout the year, but winter can get particularly chilly. The best months are from April to October, with the warmest temperatures arriving around July and August. Generally, the visibility in most waters remains relatively clear, making it the ideal location for some recreational scuba diving.

Scuba diving in Zakynthos Island Greece
Zakynthos diving is a very popular activity, as the island offers many interesting diving sites around the coastline. Zakynthos diving centers are found in many seaside villages, particularly in the tourist places like Laganas, Tsilivi, Alykanas, Argassi, Limni Keriou and Vassilikos. These centers offer courses for all ages and many diving trips to popular sites. Interesting Zakynthos diving sites include the Octopus and Barracuda Reefs in Keri Peninsula, the Arch of Triumph, the Keri Caves and also the island of Marathonissi. As Zakynthos is a breeding place for the endangered species of the caretta-caretta sea turtle, divers are very likely to meet such sea turtles during their dive. Here are some diving centers in Zakynthos. Each diving center is presented with detailed text, photos and point on Google map. If you have experience with any of these diving centers, feel free to write your review. All request forms are sent directly to the diving center manager so that you can book a diving course with them or ask any question.
