SEA UNDER - Halkidiki
SEA UNDER operates out of Halkidiki, a good base for exploring the Kassandra peninsula. The team knows the local sites well, especially the calmer spots closer to shore, making it suitable for newer divers or those wanting relaxed dives. We found the trips often focus on small reefs and rocky outcrops, where you might spot octopus or moray eels if you look closely. It's a solid choice for a few easy dives while on holiday in the area.
