About Katafygi Cove
Katafygi Cove is a shallow, sheltered shore dive in the Athens Riviera, built for training and easy introductory dives. The seabed is mostly Poseidonia seagrass with schools of damselfish, and night dives can bring out eels, scorpionfish, and octopus. It is a calm, low-friction option when you want a relaxed cove dive rather than a current or depth-focused outing.
