Scuba Diving in Greece Today

Diving in Greece Today For years Greek authorities have guarded their oceans, fearing that scuba divers would raid the many treasures deep within. In the past, treasure hunting in Greece was illegal and scuba diving in Greece was restricted to a very small section along the coastline. Due to these heavy regulations Greece lost a large number of scuba diving tourists. It became hard for Greece to balance their goals of preserving Greek heritage with the goals of sustaining a profitable tourism industry.

In response to Greek scuba diving centers and scuba diving tour operators petitioning against such tight regulations the Greek authorities made a drastic change in October 2005. Scuba diving in Greece is no longer restricted!

Diving in Greece Today The radiant Greek Seas are open for all divers to explore. This brings an exciting opportunity for divers to search for much of Greece's antiquities that remain underwater. Because this is such a new policy change you can be one of the first to explore the Greek coastline, and search for sunken statues, coins and various treasures.
