    CharacterReef dive

    Banc Charner is a good reef dive off Larnaca, offering a Mediterranean coral experience. You’ll find a mix of hard and soft corals, with smaller reef fish darting between the formations. It’s a solid choice for an afternoon boat dive, particularly if you’re looking for a relaxed exploration rather than a drift.
