About Nikouria Northern Wall
Nikouria Northern Wall is a short-boat deep wall dive off Amorgos, with a cavern and a long drop that keeps it firmly in advanced territory. The wall face and pockets are the main draw, with big-blue water and passing pelagics giving the dive its scale. Plan it as a winter-friendly boat objective for experienced divers who are comfortable with depth and a more exposed island tip.
