Overview
A beautiful and colorful dive next to the island of Nikouria, on the coast of the tiny island of Gramvonissi. The beauty of this dive site was discovered only two years ago. This new dive site is accessible for all levels, from snorkelers to professional divers. Great light due to the shallow depth.
Access: Access by boat only.
Marine life: Documented marine species observed at Grabonissi include common octopuses (Octopus vulgaris), Mediterranean moray eels (Muraena helena), damselfish (Chromis chromis), common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis).
Safety: Grabonissi offers calm diving conditions inside the sound. Because Grabonissi and Nikouria are designated marine archaeological areas, photography and videography may be restricted under Greek antiquities regulations.
