Sea Adventure: Shipwreck & Cave Diving
Trip Description
Depart from the picturesque harbor of Agios Fokas, near Vatera, for an unforgettable 4-hour boat trip in Lesvos, exploring the wild and majestic southern coastline of the island.
Your first stop, just a short distance away, is perfect for snorkeling over a stunning shallow-water shipwreck, teeming with vibrant marine life in crystal-clear waters.
Next, cruise eastward to Apergousa Beach, where a dramatic rock formation known as "Kommenos Vrachos" (Cut Rock) divides the golden sandy beach into two. This idyllic spot hides secret caves ideal for swimming. Adventurous guests can climb the rock and enjoy panoramic views from the top.
Nearby lies a hidden sea cave that exudes peace and magic. Concealed from most eyes, it features a tiny beach with pure white pebbles—a secret paradise waiting to be discovered.
Just a few meters away, thrill-seekers will uncover a rare gem: an underwater cave known only to a few locals. A short dive with our gear takes you inside, where sunlight filters through the water, creating a surreal, dreamlike atmosphere. This is an unforgettable blend of exploration and natural beauty, perfect for true ocean lovers.
Your next discovery is the mysterious chapel of Panagia Kryfti, a traditional Greek sanctuary carved into the cliffs and accessible mainly by sea. Here, natural hot springs flow directly into the sea, creating a unique open-air spa in a UNESCO-protected area of breathtaking beauty. Surrounded by steep cliffs and lush hills, this sacred site is a peaceful meeting point between sea and mountains.
Our trip reaches its peak in Melinta, with an adrenaline-filled stop that promises pure excitement: thrilling cliff dives from the towering seaside rock into the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean. A breathtaking cliff diving experience you won’t forget!
Throughout the cruise, indulge in traditional meze of Lesvos, paired with a chilled glass of ouzo or a refreshing Aperol Spritz. Discover Lesvos through a unique boat tour that blends exploration, relaxation, and natural beauty. Enjoy a personalized sea experience along the island’s stunning coastline, with stops at sea caves, hidden beaches, and Aegean gems.
