St Georges Island
Mediterranean wall dive with caves and bright reef life.

Boat-access Akamas site with a wall, caves, and a sloping reef; best on calm boat days with controlled buoyancy.
About St Georges Island
St Georges Island is a boat-access Akamas wall and cave dive where the best days are calm enough to keep a clean line over the ridge, through the swim-throughs, and along the sloping reef. Clear Mediterranean water, colourful reef cover, and a deeper drop-off make this a site for controlled buoyancy, steady route choice, and relaxed boat-day planning rather than rushy current management.
