Skyros islet wall dive with a cavern and blue-water exposure.
Boat logistics and the exposed wall/cavern profile make local guidance the normal way to run the site.
Lakonisi is a boat-access islet off Skyros with a dramatic wall dive, a cavern in the shallower section, and open blue water beyond the rock. It suits experienced divers who are comfortable with depth and an overhead section, while still feeling straightforward from the boat. Schools of snapper and jackfish gather along the wall, with groupers in the holes and occasional stingrays or barracuda moving through.
