    StandoutDramatic cave topography

    Cyclops Caves offers a straightforward cavern dive, making it a good spot for newer divers looking to explore overhead environments. At 22m, the main chamber is accessible and wide, letting in plenty of ambient light. You'll likely spot smaller reef fish congregating near the entrance and along the rocky walls. It's a decent option if you're in the Larnaca area and want a simple, relaxed dive.
