The Hole, also known as Green Bay Caves, is an advanced dive near Protaras on Cyprus's southeastern coast. This dramatic site features a series of underwater caves and a deep vertical chimney formation in the rocky Mediterranean coastline. Divers descend through the chimney into cave chambers where natural light creates spectacular blue and green effects. The cave walls host Mediterranean species including groupers, moray eels, and colorful nudibranchs. The surrounding reef features sea grass meadows and rocky formations typical of the eastern Mediterranean. Cave penetration requires advanced training, but The Hole offers one of Cyprus's most unique and visually stunning diving experiences.
