    Arsida offers a tranquil dive for those exploring Alonissos. We typically find smaller reef fish darting around the rock formations here, along with the occasional moray eel peeking from crevices. It's a relaxed spot, quite shallow in parts, making it a good choice for newer divers or anyone looking for an easy, pleasant afternoon in the water.
