Apogon Castle

A blend of rocky walls and rock slides that end down at the sandy seabed create the perfect habitat for the vast majority of Mediterranean species along with the newly arrived invasive yet impressive lion fish. In every hole of the rocks, all kinds of breams blend with gold blotch and white groupers, while nudibranch, slipper lobsters and crabs, wrasses and morays add their vivid colours. Like built by a u/w giant, a dolmen-like rock, that resists sliding to the bottom creates the perfect shady fortress for a large school of cardinal fish.

The average depth of the dive is 9 m, while the max is 18 m, appropriate for divers of all levels.

The usual visibility is 25 m and temperature ranges between 24-26 °C in summer months. Boat ride duration 6′.

The Undercut

In between the iconic little caverns of Kako Lagadi beach and the mushroom shaped rocks of Limenia bay there is a last elevated cove. The underwater scenery is as impressive, with big cuts bellow the rock and crevices full of pseudo corals, tube worms and all species of Mediterranean sponges. Schools of small fish feed against the current around this tip of land and attract predators like amberjacks and blue runners. The newly arrived invasive yet incredibly impressive lionfish also like this spot as can find shelter in the remains of a sunk small barge.

The average depth of the dive is 12 m, while the max is 18 m, appropriate for divers of all levels.

The usual visibility is 24 m and temperature ranges between 19-25 °C in summer months. Occasionally a moderate surface current may be encountered. Boat ride duration 9′.
