The Canyon
The Canyon dive is a challenge, and well worth the effort. As the name suggests, the canyon is exactly that: a narrow chasm with steep cliff walls that leads to the open ocean. This site is a favourite for stingrays who have fallen under the influence of Cyprus, The Island of love….and choose to mate here. A diver who has luck on their side may just be fortunate to “catch them in the act”! A secondary feature of this dive is a ‘second canyon’, with colours that just beg the avid underwater photographer to capture this breath-taking ecosystem.
