Sheltered boat-access bay with a small wall
Aspro Faro is a sheltered boat-access bay near Palea Epidavros, marked by the white lighthouse and a mix of rocky shelves, a small wall, and multi-level terrain that starts shallow and opens into deeper water. It is a strong beginner or discovery dive when the sea outside is less settled, with easy route-finding, a calm sheltered feel, and plenty of time to watch Mediterranean fish around the rocks.
