Crystal-clear Mediterranean waters make Paphos a standout spot for underwater exploration. The ancient harbor city delivers three excellent options: A practical half-day introduction gets you up close with marine life and Roman artifacts near the shore. For a more intimate experience, the Blue Lagoon tour (maximum two people) offers stunning visibility and rich sea life.
The PADI Scuba Diver Course provides official certification with guided practice in the pristine Akamas Peninsula. I especially recommend the Blue Lagoon experience – its small group size ensures personal attention and the site’s protected status means exceptional marine encounters.
