    Palatia Bay, off Saria, offers a relaxed dive with interesting rock formations and scattered patches of seagrass. You’ll likely spot small Mediterranean wrasse, bream, and the occasional octopus tucked into crevices. It’s a good choice for newer divers or those looking for a calm, shallow exploration away from the crowds. The visibility tends to be decent, making for an easy, pleasant dive.
