Glaronissia (Seagull Island)

Along the island walls, the scenery is quiet dramatic with the pentagonally shaped rock forming like an undersea temple. Other than that, there are big patches of sea grass. Sadly, because of overfishing, there isn't a lot of marine life. From Pollonia harbor go west until you reach Glaronissia (the Seagull Island). The island is easily recognizable by its strange rock formations that look like stacks of pentagonal bars. This structure come from slow cooling of andesitic lava. There is a hole in the island which divers usually go through at the end of the dive as it makes an interesting safety stop. Also in april-jun the island is home of a Gull colony during nesting. Glaronissia (Seagull Island) is also known as Γλαρονήσια.
