Diving at Spinalonga

ABOUT

Spinalonga is a small island just off the eastern coast of Crete, near towns like Agios Nikolaos and Plaka. It’s a fantastic location for diving, and several specialized centers offer diving excursions to explore the area’s underwater world!


Keep in mind that it takes about an hour by boat from Agios Nikolaos to reach Spinalonga, while from Plaka, it’s just a quick 10-minute ride.
