Wreck of Achilleas
August 18, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Achilleas
On the sandy sea bed lies the wreck of the Greek vessel which mysteriously exploded and sank in 1975.
There are 3 main sections of the wreck to visit, the most popular being the bronze propeller on the upturned stern section and the winch.
With so many hiding places on this dive site we often see Octopus and Moray Eel hidden in the winch and upturned bow section!
We will meet at our well-equipped diving centre in Paphos Harbour. Our friendly and helpful PADI professionals will help you with equipment and begin with an interesting and informative dive briefing. Unless you have your own diving gear, all equipment is supplied by us. We spend a few minutes checking your sizes and will fit you with the suitable gear. All of our diving equipment is well maintained and serviced regularly to ensure your safety and comfort.
Complimentary fresh fruit and refreshments will be served on the boat before returning to the harbour.
Back at the dive centre our PADI professionals will debrief you and help you to complete your logbooks.
Once everyone is ready we will take a short walk to the Paphos harbour where we will board one of our Cydive boats. The journey from the harbour to the site of Achilleas takes around 15 minutes by boat.
Meeting time at Cydive: 14:00
Return time: 17:00 approximately
Suitable for: All qualified divers
