DivingThe
islands have diving sites suitable for beginners and advanced level divers.
The waters surrounding the islands are very clear with an underwater visibility
of at least 20 meters.
Beginners can try the east coast and its shallow sea grass beds with clear
warm waters and more experienced divers can dive to the spectacular caves
and cliff walls of the Paxos and Antipaxos west coast and to the wreck
of an old
Russian cargo ship.
Paxos sea life is varied including octopus, moray eels, grouper, bream, damsel
fish, tube worms and various species of brightly coloured flat worms. Sea
turtles, dolphins and seals are a rare and so magic site, if you are discreet
enough.
The diving center is based in Lakka, the northern port of Paxos. It is
recently established, small, but very well organized and equipped, with
a very friendly
atmosphere and with an english and german speaking team of experienced,
highly qualified young people, always eager to help you discover the
underwater world of these beautiful islands combining safety with fun.
