Amphitheater is a dive site off Panteronissi, facing Paros, known for a series of overhangs that give it its name. The terrain centers on these rocky structures, with a shallow section nearby that is rich in yellow tube sponges. Marine life commonly spotted here includes octopus, groupers, and moray eels.

Easy and relaxing scuba with shallow overhangs and a bright, scenic rock profile.

Snorkeling is not the main draw; the interesting parts sit under the overhangs.
