Cyclops

Also known as: Cyclops Cave · Cyclops Caves · Cyclop's Cave · Konnos Point

The cave that gives the site its name lies above the water and is passed on the way down to the entry. A giant stride or seated entry from the rocks is followed by a short surface swim, then divers descend past huge boulders and choose their depth around the point before returning shallower. The terrain mixes rock platforms at about 4 to 9 m, cliffs, sandy paths and Posidonia meadows, and a sunken jet ski serves as a target for deep training dives. Because of the range of depths it is used for navigation, night, deep, sidemount and technical training. Groupers, moray eels, lionfish, nudibranchs, bream and passing jacks and tuna are typical sightings.
