Dive into Greece

RECREATIONAL divers have the opportunity to discover a treasure trove of wrecks on the Greek seabed, part of a drive to catalogue and preserve European underwater cultural heritage.

The country’s first designated underwater museum opened in 2019 within the National Marine Park of Alonissos and Northern Sporades. It centres on the shipwreck, which sank near Alonissos island, in the Western Aegean, in the 5th century BC, carrying a cargo of some 4,000 wine amphorae. The site will re-open from June to November, and three more will launch in the near future, including a Roman wreck off Cape Telegrafos and
