This 3.5-hour boat dive promises more than just a splash — it offers a chance to explore a mesmerizing underwater cavern, brimming with marine life and illuminated by incredible blue light.

What really sets this tour apart are its crystal-clear waters with visibility often exceeding 30 meters, the spectacular cavern inside the Blue Dome, and the fact that it’s suitable even for those new to cavern diving.
