Te dive site is to paralell running reefs which are situated at 7 and 14 meters. 

The entry/ exit point is apparent however the walk to the site is uneven, be careful.

once in the water swim out for approximately 50m through the rock formations and turn left this will take you between the two reefs the deeper reef being on your right.

At the beginning of noth reefs there is a large sandy bottom which can be utlised for training, there is also a moderate flat sand area between both reefs.

This is not an easy entry dive site

The road you require is the same for both Konnos point and Cyclops caves however when you are on the dirt track you need to take the first left on to another sand track and follow it to the end and park. you then have approximately 150m to walk to the entry point.

The terrain to drive and walk is uneven and caution is required. You should not attempt this drive in any low lying car a jeep or truck is strongly recommended.

Pirates Bay

The Fish-Fiding-Rock is the only attraction for divers. The fish is spoiled by feeding and comes to the large boulder rock (depth of 7-8 m), when divers knock on it with the stones or something hard. Thousands of fish gather around, so it is difficult to even take the pictures.

From the shore of Protaras

Green Bay

This is an extremely easy dive site and relatively shallow.

To the right hand side moray eels and turtles have been seen during the summer months.

To the left hand side a variant of small and large fish (for Cyprus) have been seen as well as moray eels. At the end of the rock formations is a small cave which has a hole wide enough for a diver to fit through at the top.

The sandy plain to the east of the dive site is at 6m so it can be utilised for diver training

This is an easy site to find

Head towards Cape Grecko once you have reached the pennisula follow the road in the direction of the 4 large antennas. After you have gone down the hill and have reached the plain of the antennas look to your left for a wooden picnic seat that has steps to its left hand side and you are there!

Cape Grecko Caves

The dive site has 2 very good caves, one of which has the narrow exit that looks almost exactly the same as Map of Cyprus. Amazing!

From the shore 5 km away from Protaras toward Ayia Napa (south-west).

Caves

Very rich in marine life, maybe the richest in the area, mainly due to geomorphological characteristics of the site and low numbers of swimmers

A small, hidden beach. On the road to cape Greco from Protaras, turn left to Ikarias street, the road that leeds to De Costa bay apartments
