Operated by Dive2gether Crete · Myrthianos Plakias
Situated along the southern coast of Crete near the small village of Myrthianos Plakias, Dive2gether Crete invites underwater travelers to experience two full days of shore diving that blend rugged coastal terrain with crystal-clear waters. This region is marked by dramatic gorges and rocky cliffs plunging into the sea, framing dive sites where visibility extends up to 30 meters. The seabed hosts an impressive array of marine life, from vibrant sponges and colorful reef fish to the occasional moray eel weaving through crevices carved from ancient limestone.
Dive2gether Crete stands out in the local diving scene by emphasizing highly personalized, small group excursions that prioritize safety and tailored guidance. Each day begins with a comprehensive safety briefing and equipment fitting, transitioning into two dives per day where divers can fully absorb the tranquility and diversity beneath the surface. Between immersions, the group retreats to a nearby beach taverna, where traditional Greek fare offers a perfect balance of relaxation and fuel.
What makes this diving experience unique is the coupling of the accessible shore entries—eliminating the need for boats—and the varied underwater topography. These dives feature a mix of drop-offs, rocky formations, and sheltered gorges, creating a varied habitat that supports a thriving ecosystem. This lends itself well to divers of certified Open Water level and above, providing both exhilarating exploration and a comfortable pace.
Crete itself boasts a rich history dating back to Minoan civilization, and while the diving here focuses on natural wonders, visitors can appreciate the broader cultural backdrop of this Mediterranean crossroads. Dive2gether’s commitment to environmental stewardship ensures that guests leave with a deeper respect for the fragile marine environment.
For divers seeking to connect closely with Crete’s underwater landscapes while enjoying attentive instruction and an intimate group setting, Dive2gether Crete delivers an adventure that combines rugged natural beauty, excellent conditions, and unforgettable local hospitality.
