    Marianna, off the coast of Crete, is a relaxed dive site, good for shaking off the rust or for those new to Mediterranean diving. Expect to see typical reef fish, perhaps a moray eel peeking from a crevice, and a smattering of sponges and anemones. Visibility is generally good, making it a pleasant dive without any particular challenges. It’s a solid choice for an easy afternoon in the water.
