The Chapel

Also known as: Chapel (Agioi Anargyroi)

Divers kit up beside the chapel and walk down a stairway to a large cave at the waterline that serves as the entry point. From there the cliff falls away steeply, and routes run either left over shallower rock with pottery fragments fused into the stone or right along high walls and seagrass fields. The scenery includes overhangs, ledges, fossils in the cliff and sponge-covered rocks scattered with broken amphorae. Groupers, moray eels, octopus, nudibranchs and lionfish are common, and the site is used for navigation, deep and night dives. Most dives stay at about 10 to 15 m even though the site goes much deeper.
