Pefkos
Shore dive in Pefkos with shallow rock, overhangs, and sea life.
Pefkos is a shore-access bay dive on Rhodes: shallow, rocky, and beginner-friendly, with easy logistics from a local dive base.
About Pefkos
Shore-access dive in Pefkos on the southeast coast of Rhodes, starting from a local dive base and a short walk down to Fokia Bay. The site is a small rocky bay with shallow profiles, overhangs, and swim-throughs, so it works best as a relaxed recreational dive with tidy buoyancy and a calm sea state. Expect an easy entry, simple navigation, and plenty of Mediterranean sea life rather than a deep drop-off.

Local Intel For Pefkos
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a beginner-friendly shore dive with shallow rocky terrain, overhangs, and simple navigation for try-dives or refresher days.
Freediving
Freediving is only sensible on calm days with local supervision, because the site is shallow but rocky and the best features are close to the bottom.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling can work in calm water, but the site is really about the shallow rock structure and swim-throughs below the surface.
