Koukouras
Koukouras is a boat dive with reefs and artifacts off Samos.
A relaxed reef-and-artifact site with limited current, boat access, and a shallow training side plus a deeper anchor side.
About Koukouras
Koukouras is a boat-access dive off Samos with two distinct areas: a shallow reef zone that works well for training and easy exploration, and a deeper rocky section with historical artifacts, a cannon, and a large anchor. The site combines simple reef structure, sand patches, and little current, so it can suit both newer divers and more experienced visitors who want to explore the deeper features carefully.
