    Hitit Koyu, just off the coast of Larnaca, is a straightforward dive, topping out at 17 metres. It’s a good spot for newer divers looking for a relaxed introduction to the Mediterranean. You’ll find some scattered rocks, home to smaller reef fish and often a few inquisitive moray eels poking from their crevices. We like it for easy buoyancy practice and a gentle afternoon explore.
