About Karavopetra
Karavopetra is a rocky Samos dive that rewards careful planning more than speed. The rock can be dived as a drift when conditions allow, but the site is only sensible in no-current water and the netted side needs attention. Expect a more exposed, experienced-diver profile with a rocky bottom, sandy patches, and a short boat trip from the local dive center.
