Can be done from shore, but requires an arduous climb over the rock, down the steps and then along a snorkel swim. This site is best done by dive boat. The entrance to the cave is only 5 meters below the water and leads you through to a huge domed vault, where you can surface and light penetrates through small cracks in the rock. The interior of the cave’s sea bed is covered in massive boulders and the view to the outside blue of the ocean is breathtaking. The exit of the cave you can find in 21 meters.

Because of some serious surge in the cave, this site has to be done by only very experienced divers in flat calm conditions. The entry to the cave you will find after a 2 meters jump and swim under the water. The cave has very little natural light penetration, that’s why torchlight is strongly recommended. The sides of the tunnel are covered in a multitude of differently colored sponges. After 50 meters swim one can surface inside the cave and cast the lights over the vaulted natural stone ceiling.

This site is very popular with fishermen, so exercise caution. Depending on your wish access is either to the right or the left of the headland. The wall is near vertical in many places and is cut by numerous fissures, caves and crevices.
On the submarine section of the headland are two chimneys or holes, which drop down through the wall. To the right of the sheltered inlet there is a chimney that drops from 6 m to 16 m, while on the left there is a more serious chimney, to be dived by more experienced divers.

The first smaller archway starts at 20 m and directly beneath it is the larger of the two, stretching to the sea bed 45 meters below. The outer reef is great for barracuda and groups.
