About Pothitos
Pothitos is a boat-access island dive off the Athens Riviera with multiple routes that suit a wide range of scuba experience. The site combines a classic wall profile with cracks, cavities, and swim-throughs, so the dive can be as easy or as challenging as the team chooses. Marine life is rich and the water is typically clear, making it a strong all-around Greek island dive rather than a one-note wreck stop.
