Scuba Diving Holidays In Cyprus
Whether you enjoy wreck exploration or eco-diving in unspoilt oceans, this lovely island is for you.
Country Description
Cyprus is divided in two by a political situation that found the northern area partitioned in 1974 following an invasion by Turkey. Turkey subsequently lays claim to this region, although the UN doesn't recognize it. This has little effect on the tourist industry however, as most attractions are in the south. However the north is now opening up to tourism
Diving Description
Surprisingly Cyprus has a lot to offer divers with good sites all around the country. There are numerous wrecks, a few caves and even the odd wall.
Dive Sites
A massive roll-on, roll-off ferry that sank near Larnaca. In fact it's so big that it can even bee seen from the air as you come in to land in Cyprus. She offers divers tons of opportunities for exploration, with the shallowest section lying at only 16m. There are numerous other wrecks in Greek Cypriot waters, all of them close to shore.
Akamas Peninsular
The best destination for unspoilt diving, this area is being promoted as a center for eco-tourism. The Peninsular offers a few walls and caves among its rocky scenery. Marine life is also plentiful.
Other info
The climate is typically Mediterranean with hot and dry summer, and mild, but occasionally wet winters.
