Elounda Village Corner

Elounda Village Corner is a pleasant beginner dive on the northeast coast of Crete near the upscale resort town of Elounda. This sheltered shore dive starts from the village waterfront and follows a gentle slope of sand and rock down to moderate depths. The protected bay of Mirabello provides calm, warm waters with excellent visibility. Marine life includes octopus, cuttlefish, sea cucumbers, and schools of bream weaving between Posidonia seagrass beds. Colourful wrasse and damselfish animate the rocky sections, while the occasional seahorse clings to vegetation. An accessible and rewarding dive with the historic island of Spinalonga visible from the surface.
