Our two diving boats are specially designed to guarantee the best comfort on your diving trips. Enjoy daily diving-tours on our new cruising-boat along the North coast of Crete! This is a 10 m long and 3.5 m beam, especially constructed diving-boat. It has a capacity of 22 divers and is designed to offer modern comfort and guarantee a safe and enjoyable trip for you and your family or friends. Powered by an IVECO AIFO inboard turbo-diesel engine OF 330 HP, the boat travels quickly to different destinations every day to a maximum distance of 15 miles. All of the trips are navigated along the North coast of Crete close to the shore, where we can easily anchor and dive in more than 20 different dive sites. Our speedboat measures 7.5 m length, 2.4m width and is equipped with a Mercury 165HP outboard engine. The boat's capacity is 12 divers.
"Big anchor" is one of the most marvellous reefs we have in the area. It is 0.5 miles away from the dive centre to the West. On this course large groupers, striped groupers and the ever curious snappers accompany the divers from a close distance.
The blue cave is one of the most fascinating dives we do in the area. 2 miles West of the dive centre the boat anchors right in front of the cave's entrance. Even before entering the water, the divers are already impressed of the huge rocky wall, which extends vertically from the surface up to 100 meters.
One of the most famous dive site is the MESSERSCHMITT 109 WRECK, a German W.W.II fighter, lying 800m offshore, in a depth of 24m. It is found lying upside down, broken into several pieces. The wings and fuselage are intact and you can see inside the cockpit.
