Airport Reef is a beginner-friendly dive site near the old Paphos airport on Cyprus's western coast, with a maximum depth of 16 meters. This accessible shore dive features a gentle slope leading to a series of low reef formations teeming with marine life. Rocky outcrops are home to octopus, moray eels, and colorful nudibranchs, while schools of bream and chromis hover above the reef. Seagrass meadows between the rocks shelter juvenile fish, cuttlefish, and seahorses. The easy entry, mild currents, and consistent visibility make Airport Reef a popular choice for dive training and leisurely exploration.
