The Bottle is a Corfu cave dive with two caverns and a coral wall.
The Bottle is a Corfu cave dive with two linked caverns, one shaped like a bottle and another that opens back to the surface. Between the cave sections, a colorful wall of coral and sponges gives you a slower look at the site and keeps the dive interesting beyond the overhead sections. It is best treated as a guided boat dive for advanced divers who are comfortable with buoyancy, cave etiquette, and a short swimthrough. Clear water and the no-current profile make it a strong choice for tidy, controlled cave diving rather than a fast-moving reef day.
