Diving at Korakonissi
 
Korakonissi is a fiord on the western coast of the island and gives its name to the presence of a small island with a long shape, connected to the mainland by a huge natural rock arch.
Located in the south part of the Porto Limnionas it is reachable only by a jeep driving along a rough road that leaves from the town of Kiliomeno, the best suggestion we can give you is
 
to take a supply of water since there are no abodes, petrol stations etc. from there to the next inhabited area.
The small island creates together with the mainland a tiny natural fiord rich of starfish and sea urchins where the waters have wonderful colours.
If from the part of the island facing the open sea you swim for 10/15 minutes to the left you reach a cave wonderful for its colours and the concretions on the walls; there you can walk since the water isn’t more than 30 cm deep.
The adventure doesn’t consist in visiting the small cave; your task is to go up to the top of the natural bridge and try to dive.
The water there is very deep and there are no risks of emerging rocks, the difficult part is that the bridge is 20 metres tall so it is advisable not to suffer of giddiness and to wear a diving suit to soften the impact with water…
