The Canyon, Ayia Napa
Top 10 in Top 10 Best Diving Sites In Cyprus
Although not really a canyon, this is a fantastic diving place in the magnificent Cape Greco National Park, just beneath the cliffside. It is also considered one of the best diving sites in Cyprus. The dive spot is easily accessible from the beach and is recognized for its beautiful rock formations and abundance of marine life. Because the canyon's entry point is notoriously tough to navigate, you should only visit if you're in good physical shape. The canyon is 25 meters wide and 22 meters deep, with a visibility of 25 meters.
The Canyon dive is a challenging but rewarding experience. The canyon is precisely what its name implies: a tiny gap with steep cliff walls that leads to the open ocean. Stingrays who have been influenced by Cyprus, The Island of Love....and prefer to mate here are attracted to this location. A diver with good luck might just get lucky and "catch them in the act"! A'second canyon,' with colors that tempt the passionate underwater photographer to capture this stunning habitat, is a secondary focus of this dive.
