Why dive here
The Arch is a cave dive where divers can encounter dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola), sea turtles and sperm whales.
The Arch, off Zakynthos, offers a swim-through rock formation that’s pretty straightforward. You'll navigate a natural stone archway, which typically has some small schooling fish hovering around. It’s a good spot for newer divers looking for an easy cave-like experience without strong currents or complex navigation. Visibility here is usually decent, making for an enjoyable, relaxed dive.
