About this dive site

This dive site, Molos Beach on Paros, is primarily a shallow snorkeling location. Situated on the east coast, the northern end transitions from sand to a rocky coastline extending for approximately 200 meters, which is the main area of interest for underwater exploration. There's no complex navigation; simply follow the rocky shore. There is no significant historical context mentioned for underwater features beyond its natural formation.

Snorkelers can expect to encounter several species of small fish and various invertebrates inhabiting the rocky crevices and seagrass beds along the coastline. The clear Aegean waters provide a good opportunity to observe typical Mediterranean shallow-water marine life in its natural habitat.

The best time to visit Molos Beach for snorkeling is during the summer months when the weather is warm and the sea is calm. It is an excellent spot for families, beginners, and anyone looking for a relaxed session in shallow, clear water. Freedivers can practice breath-hold techniques in the calm, shallow bay, while underwater photographers can focus on macro subjects among the rocks.
