DIVING SITE
IN CYPRUS
Where are the best places to dive in Cyprus?
Even though Cyprus isn't (yet) known as a diving destination, there's much more to see than just Zenobia. You can admire natural bays with perfect water conditions, impressive rock formations with caves and tunnels, various shipwrecks and artificial reefs, as well as an underwater museum – all right on our doorstep. With this overview map of our dive sites, we want to show you just how diverse your Cyprus holiday can be.

Cyclops Cave
A nice dive site with several diving options. It is suitable for deep dives up to 40 meters deep. However, a shallower dive can also be very interesting.

Musan
Jason deCaires Taylor's Underwater Museum opened on August 1, 2021. The museum consists of various sculptures. The underwater world slowly begins to settle in the museum. Algae have grown on the artificial trees and kelp sculptures and small schools of fish have taken up residence. Crayfish and cuttlefish are also more and more common. You can find out more here.

Nemesis wreck
In December 2013 the wreck was sunk as planned right next to the Liberty wreck in Paralimni. Previously, holes were cut into the ship's bow, which now form great swimm-troughs under water.

Octopus Reef
Octopus Reef is a pristine reef bank off the Paralimnis coast. At an average depth of 30 meters, octopuses, lionfish, moray eels and much more can be discovered. The reef can be reached by boat and is only suitable for experienced divers due to the depth and sometimes currents.

Zenobia
This wreck is one of the top wrecks for diving in the world! In 1980 it sank just off the coast of Larnaka on its maiden voyage.
