Diving in Paros offers an unforgettable underwater adventure. The island’s crystal-clear waters and rich marine life make it a top destination for divers. Choosing the right diving center is crucial to fully enjoying this experience. I want to share why selecting the best diving centers in Paros matters and how it can elevate your diving journey.


What Makes the Best Diving Centers Stand Out?


The best diving centers focus on safety, personalized service, and quality equipment. They provide tailored experiences that match your skill level and interests. When I dive with a top center, I feel confident and cared for from start to finish.


Here are key features to look for:


  • Certified instructors, specializing in demanding diving environments, such as closed circuit (rebreather), trimix diving, and cave diving.

  • Small group sizes for personalized attention

  • Modern, well-maintained gear

  • Clear safety protocols and emergency plans

  • Diverse dive sites suitable for all levels


These centers also offer specialty dives like DPV (scooter diving), wreck exploration, SCR-CCR, and of course, Cave diving. They help you discover Paros’s hidden underwater gems.

Exploring Paros with the Best Diving Center.


Paros offers a variety of dive sites, from shallow reefs to deep walls. The best diving centers know these spots intimately. They guide you to the best locations based on conditions and your preferences.


For example, you might explore:


  • The Cavern - a stunning underwater cave with vibrant marine life

  • The Wreck of the Marianna - a fascinating shipwreck dive

  • The Wreck of Bristol Beaufighter - ideal for advanced divers with deep specialty skills and offers stunning technical diving opportunities, providing a dive into WWII history.

  • Scooter dive (DPV) - If you want to make the most of your bottom time and have more fun on your dives, try underwater scooter or Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) diving.


A good center plans your dives carefully, considering tides, currents, and weather. This ensures you get the most out of every dive safely.

Pioneering CCR Training: First rEvo Rebreather School Successfully Completed in Paros and in Greece!


Paros Divers is proud to announce the successful completion of the first-ever rebreather training course focused on the cutting-edge rEvo Closed Circuit Rebreather (CCR) in the South Aegean region!


This milestone marks a significant step forward for technical diving in the Cyclades and firmly establishes Paros as a premier destination for high-level CCR training and guided dives.


The course, led by our experienced SSI XR Technical Instructor, was a resounding success. Students from Europe gathered at Golden Beach to immerse themselves in the deep science and precise operation of the CCR rEvo —a favourite unit among demanding technical explorers for its robustness and performance.


Why This is a Game-Changer for Paros and the Region?


Until now, divers seeking this level of specialized CCR training had to travel to larger hubs. Paros Divers is changing that by combining world-class technical education with the stunning backdrop of the Aegean Sea:


Elevated Training Standards: The rEvo course demanded meticulous planning, detailed gas management, and complex deco procedures. We are committed to maintaining the highest safety and instructional standards, ensuring every graduate is a confident and competent CCR diver.


Access to Deep, Unexplored Sites: The quiet, efficient nature of rebreathers allows divers to get closer to marine life and, crucially, extend their bottom time on deeper, more challenging sites—including deep wrecks and the mesmerizing Amphitrite Cave complex. This training opens up a new realm of exploration in the Aegean.


Commitment to Technical Diving: This event underscores the Paros Divers philosophy: focusing on private, personalized, and high-value technical services. We don't just guide dives; we foster truly skilled and safe technical divers.


We extend our sincere congratulations to all the new rEvo certified divers. They are now equipped to explore the deep secrets of the sea with unparalleled efficiency and silence.


Ready to Join the Next Generation of Explorers?

Whether you are seeking guided dives on your own CCR unit, or ready to take the leap into the world of rebreathers with an Advanced Nitrox or full Decompression Procedures course, Paros Divers is your certified, experienced, and dedicated partner.


The future of silent, long-duration exploration is here—and it starts in Paros.

An intriguing tip from Dimitris Pharao in the spring of 2021 about an opening in the seabed sent a jolt of excitement through us, sparking our curiosity about a potential new cave. Due to other commitments, we hadn't been able to devote much time to it, and initial attempts to locate it were unsuccessful.



Now, in 2025, with Dimitris by our side, we visited the exact spot he had described.



On our first reconnaissance dive, we encountered a sight that exceeded our expectations: a promising cave system.



This autumn, we hope to be able to share more details and a full account of this new discovery on Paros.
