Boat-led cave dive off Porto Rafti's main island.
Boat-led cave dive off Porto Rafti's main island.
The site is boat-led and the cavern section is easier to plan with a Porto Rafti operator.
Rafti Island is the main rocky islet in Porto Rafti bay, with a boat-led western shoreline that drops into deeper water and opens into a shallow cavern. The site is about the route, the rock relief, and the overhead section rather than long reef cruising, so buoyancy and situational awareness matter more than pace. Plan it with a local operator and choose calmer conditions for the easiest water handling.
