Schwefelwand
Schwefelwand: Zakynthos wall-and-overhang dive.
Scuba DivingFreedivingBoatAdvanced0m - 40m
Wall
Boat-dived Zakynthos wall site with an overhang, clear water, and a profile that rewards careful buoyancy.
About Schwefelwand
Schwefelwand is a steep Zakynthos wall dive reached by boat, with a shallow start, a deeper drop, and a heavily overgrown overhang. It is a site for controlled buoyancy and wall following rather than route-finding, with sponge and hard-coral cover and a strong mix of Mediterranean fish. The dive is best when the sea is settled and the group is comfortable managing depth and overhead awareness.
