Beach is a Lefkada shore dive that starts over seagrass beds and sandy bottom before transitioning westward into larger rocky formations with pinnacles. It supports a diverse mix of Mediterranean marine life, with octopus in the sand, lionfish and large groupers on the rocks, and the chance of pelagic fish passing through the site. The dive keeps enough terrain to stay interesting while still working well for newer divers.
