Dive Alonissos!

The Beauty of Diving in Alonissos

One of the greatest advantages of Alonissos is its designation as the first National Marine Park in Europe, making it one of the most preserved marine ecosystems in the Mediterranean. This status offers an excellent opportunity to dive into crystal-clear waters of significant importance to both European and global heritage. With 21 accessible dive sites, we offer beautiful dives for every level. The sites include wall dives, reef dives, small caverns and caves, as well as three stunningly colorful gorgonian gardens.

In 2020, Greece’s first underwater museum opened to the public in our area. This site holds exceptional historic and archaeological interest. The Peristera shipwreck, dating back to the 5th century BC, is the oldest accessible shipwreck in the world.

Alonissos has emerged as a premier scuba diving location in Greece after the lifting of government restrictions. Historically a haven for pirates and a crossroads of ancient trade routes, the island is home to numerous shipwrecks beneath its clear waters. Future plans include making shipwrecks from the Classical and Byzantine periods accessible. Alonissos is on its way to becoming one of Europe’s top diving destinations, and National Geographic has featured it in “A Diver’s Guide to the World” as one of the best places to dive globally.

Scuba diving is permitted exclusively in designated areas within Zone B, which includes Alonissos, Two Brothers, and Peristera. Note that Piperi Island is a restricted area, with an approach limit of three nautical miles.
