About Seagull island
Seagull island is a rocky Cretan islet dive with boulders, small cave sections, and a ledgy wall that turns into a relaxed scenic route rather than a straight drift. It suits easygoing scuba in sheltered water, with a short boat approach and a good chance of groupers, moray eels, barracuda, octopus, and seasonal turtles when conditions line up.

Local Intel For Seagull island
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Beginner-friendly in calm conditions, but better with a guide because the route includes rocky sections, a wall, and a possible return current.

Only the shallowest sheltered edges work for freediving; the best structure sits deeper and is more enjoyable on scuba.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is limited to the calm, shallow water near the access area; the main structure is better enjoyed on scuba.
