Cycladic Diving

Crete, Greece

When we think of Crete, it’s often the Minoan ruins or the hiking trails that come to mind first. But Cycladic Diving, operating out of this large Greek island, reminds us there’s plenty to explore below the surface too. They're a solid pick for divers looking to combine a cultural holiday with some decent Mediterranean diving. You won’t find dramatic drop-offs or pelagic action like in the Red Sea, but for relaxed dives among rocky reefs and a good chance to spot octopus, moray eels, and plenty of smaller reef fish, Cycladic does a steady job. Their local knowledge of the 167 nearby sites means they can pick the best conditions on any given day, which we appreciate.
