Dive Spot Guide•
Paramount
Beginner shore dive on Cyprus twin reef lines.
Shallow shore dive with twin reefs, an uneven walk-in, and a simple out-and-back route that works best in calm conditions.
About Paramount
Paramount is a beginner-friendly shore dive on Cyprus's eastern coast, known for twin reef lines, sandy training patches, and slow-paced reef exploration. After a shore entry, the route follows a shallow drop-off and the rockier margins between the reefs before turning back along the shoreline, so navigation stays simple once you are in the water. The approach on land is the trickiest part: the walk-in and track are uneven, and the site is happiest in calm, settled seas. Expect octopus, moray eels, wrasses, damselfish, and other small reef life in the same compact area.

Local Intel For Paramount
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Shallow profile with a drop-off to around 11–12 m and a return along the shoreline near 6 m, with opportunities to search trenches and under rocks.
Freediving
The shallow profile can work for freediving practice in calm conditions, though the uneven access still makes this more of a shore dive than an easy swim.
Snorkeling
The shallow reef structure and sand patches can suit short snorkel sessions in calm water, but the route is better suited to scuba.
