Diving Excursions
Our diving excursions are carried out with the 6 m. long speed boat
of our school, that holds 12 people or 8 scuba divers with their
full equipment. Our base is the picturesque and quaint village Agia
Kiriaki which is situated on the southern point of Magnesias
peninsula, exactly in front of the Cross as the locals call the
point that Pagasitic gulf meets the Aegean Sea. |
|
We start our diving excursions from the port of Agia Kiriaki,
in a variety of unique destinations, towards all three seas to
explore the islets and the rocks of the Pagasitic Gulf ( Paleo
Trikeri, Pythou, Mikra, Prassouda, Alatas ) towards the Argyroniso
and the islets of Evoean sea, as well as the areas along the eastern
coasts of Pelion in the Aegean Sea and North Evia, the reef Lefteris,
Pontikonisi, and many more.
Ship wrecks, walls, reefs, gorgonian forests, and contacts with
large mammals ( seals, dolphins ) are the targets of our daily
excursions.
The particular geographical position and the strong permanent
currents at some points, contribute to the preservation of the
rich undersea flora and fauna in the wider area. This also contributes
to the maintenance of exceptionally rich submarine biodiversity
in the wider region, which is proved by the existence of few,
individual at areas monachus-monachus (monk) seals.
In our excursions certified scuba divers, free divers and visitors
can participate.
