Naxos Scuba Diving
Naxos is among the most popular diving destinations in Greece. This island is surrounding by many shipwrecks, reefs with rich flora and fauna and small islets. The geology of the island also creates rocky formations and underwater caves along the coastline. Most Naxos diving centers are found on the western beaches of the island, such as Agios Prokopios, Agios Georgios, Plaka, and Marangas. They offer diving courses for all levels, rent equipment for individual dives and organize boat trips.
Interesting Naxos diving sites include the Calypso and Graviera Reefs close to Naxos Town, the Virgin Reef off Mikri Vigla beach, and the impressive wreck of cargo ship Marianna off Agios Prokopios beach. Diving trips are also organized to diving sites in close islands, such as the wreck of Arado Seaplane in Iraklia island.
