Deep Korakas is a deep shore dive on the Toroni side of Halkidiki that starts over a Posidonia meadow and drops onto rocky seabed as the route heads seaward. The profile changes quickly, so it suits confident divers who like a clear terrain progression, steady buoyancy, and a long descent rather than a simple shallow reef swim. Expect a Mediterranean mix of sea bream, octopus, combers, moray eels, and grouper species.
