Paphos with it’s wild rocky coast, offers amazing sceneries under the sea, like the Amphorae Caves, with numerous caves, one of which is encrusted with amphorae (ancient clay storage jars), worth exploring at depths to 12 metres/40 feet. Copper Wreck, near Limassol Town, just 40 min drive from Paphos, lies off the Akrotiri Peninsula in less than 10 metres/33 feet of water. The remains are well broken up but keep your eyes open for brass fasteners and fragments of the hull.

In just an hours drive from Paphos, in Larnaca Town, experienced divers can visit the Wreck of Zenobia, former Swedish ferry, sank in July 1980 and is found at depths from 16-43 metres/52-141 feet.
