Ekatosti is a canyon-and-pinnacle dive off Paros.
Cycladic Diving lists Ekatosti as a guided Paros dive.
Ekatosti is a compact canyon-and-pinnacle dive off Paros, with a small labyrinth of narrow canyons that leads to a shallow-topped pinnacle. The site feels playful rather than deep, and the rock walls and cut-throughs reward steady buoyancy, slow route-finding, and attention to the fish-packed structure around the pinnacle. It is a good fit for guided certified divers who want interesting terrain, easy planning, and lots of small-to-medium marine life.

Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
The narrow canyon labyrinth can limit direct vertical access and requires careful navigation and buoyancy control.
Access Restrictions
Guided dive access is the practical route; the narrow canyons call for controlled buoyancy and route discipline.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A narrow canyon labyrinth ending at a shallow pinnacle, best handled as a guided certified-dive route with steady buoyancy.
Freediving
The shallow pinnacle makes calm freedive looks possible, but the narrow canyons are better handled as a guided scuba dive.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling can work near the shallow top, but the canyons and the fish action are better when you can descend and move carefully.
