What it's like

Dragonisi is a dive site off Mykonos where the caverns sit under the water. Divers know it as a cavern dive site. The caverns are reached by boat, so the dive is planned around the sea rather than the town.

A visit means a boat trip out, then a guided dive into the caverns with a dive center. Divers who are not yet certified can try a short discover-scuba dive first, with a briefing before they go under.

Good to know

  • Certified divers only, apart from the discover-scuba option for beginners.
  • GoDive Mykonos offers a briefing and a shallow discover-scuba dive for beginners.
  • Mykonos Diving Center offers discover-scuba for people with no license and no diving experience.
  • Fun dives for qualified divers cover nature, reef, wreck, cavern and antiquities sites.
