Corfu

Use conservative profiles, especially on repetitive boat days. Carry an SMB, computer, whistle, and torch for guided cavern dives. Avoid solo diving and do not enter caves, swim-throughs, or wreck interiors unless your certification, guide, gas plan, and lighting match the route. Freedivers should use a float and trained buddy, keep away from boat lanes, and avoid cave temptation. Respect no-fly guidance after scuba before departing from CFU.

For life-threatening emergencies call 112 first. Corfu has hospital and clinic support, but divers should carry DAN or equivalent dive insurance and call DAN for decompression-illness triage and chamber coordination. If DCS or arterial gas embolism is suspected, stop diving, give oxygen if trained and available, hydrate if conscious, keep the diver lying down, and coordinate emergency evacuation through medical professionals.

Corfu's Ionian habitats include Posidonia seagrass, rocky reefs, caves, dolphins, turtles, and Mediterranean monk seal habitat. Divers and boaters should avoid anchoring on seagrass, keep distance from seals, turtles, and dolphins, avoid cave disturbance, never feed wildlife, and collect no shells or artifacts. Use good buoyancy near sponges and seagrass, secure dangling gauges, and take trash back to shore.
