Two Dives at Myrthianos Plakias: Clear-Water Shore Dives with Dive2gether Crete | Scuba | Water Activities

Off the south coast of Crete near Myrthianos Plakias, Dive2gether Crete offers a full-day dive experience designed for certified divers aged ten and up. On the Ninth Day you make two guided shore dives, enjoy a beachside taverna lunch, and explore varied underwater topography.

Clear visibility—often around 30 meters—lets you read the seafloor: drop-offs, narrow gorges, jagged rocky formations, and swim-throughs that refract light. Posidonia seagrass carpets sandy flats beside rock faces, creating distinct habitats that attract wrasse, damselfish, groupers, and occasional octopus.

The day is structured and relaxed. Check-in at Dive2gether Crete includes gear fitting, a safety briefing, and warm drinks. Small groups (maximum six) ensure focused attention from guides. After a 45–60 minute first dive you surface for lunch at the seaside taverna (not included), then return for the second dive before rinsing gear back at the centre. Tanks, air, and weights are included; full equipment rental (BCD, regulator, wetsuit, mask, fins, computer) is available for travelers who need it.

Practical strengths make this trip a strong choice: reliable visibility, calm seas, and shore-entry access that suits divers preferring short surface transfers. Transport to the beach is provided if required, and free parking is usually available.

Safety procedures include mandatory medical screening, verification of certification and logbook, and a clear briefing on site limits and entry points. Women who are pregnant or attempting to become pregnant should not dive.

The schedule runs roughly eight hours, fitting well into a day of beach and sea. Spring and fall are attractive for fewer crowds and pleasant water temperatures, while summer usually provides the calmest surface conditions.

Extras include guide photography available for purchase (20 €), and an on-site option to upgrade from shore to boat dives subject to availability and additional cost.

Who benefits? Divers rebuilding confidence, families traveling with teens, and repeat visitors who want focused site variety without crowds will find this itinerary ideal.

Practical checklist: bring certification, logbook, swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, hat, and any personal dive accessories. Arrive ten minutes early and be ready for a prompt start.
