VIZAKIA BAY

Explore the water around Ayia Napa & Protaras

Just a few minutes' walk from the dive centre lies the secluded and idyllic Vizakia Beach. Today we made our first exploratory dive there, with the aid of our trusty compass! A gentle walk-in entry from the sand leads into the bay where it is the ideal depth for donning fins and mask, taking a compass bearing and ducking down to see what delights the crystal clear, warm Mediterranean has in store. Over a smooth sandy landscape, we descended to around 5 metres depth and explored a rocky canyon with a variety of marine life including damselfish, wrasse, fangtooth moray, goatfish, jacks and even a lionfish. The canyon led us a little deeper to 10 metres and then it was time to head back, ending a lovely leisurely dive of over 1 hour and returning to the sunshine and comfort of the dive centre for a well-earned iced coffee.
