Colovri is Corfu's signature deep reef, a boat dive with a dramatic drop-off, rock formations, and the Max Hahn memorial as a landmark. The site suits confident scuba divers who want warm Ionian water, clear visibility, and a long look at the reef edge rather than a shallow swim. Expect anthias, shrimp, barracuda, moray eels, and other reef fish along the boulder maze and around the edge of the abyss.

Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Stay comfortable on a deep reef edge, watch your gas and buoyancy, and treat the site as an advanced boat dive even if the upper reef is easier.

Boat access is the normal route; this is not a shore-entry site.
Legal Notes
Respect local boat-diving procedures and follow your guide's profile and turnaround plan.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best for confident divers who like steep drop-offs, rock structure, and a long reef edge with clear water.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the depth and boat profile make scuba the sensible choice.
Snorkeling
The upper reef edge may be visible from the surface, but the site is really a scuba boat dive rather than a snorkel spot.
