bogotababe Posted February 27, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2008 My niece and I are doing an eastern Med cruise this summer. Are there any snorkeling options in the Greek Isles? Looks like 99% of the comments on this board are on the Caribbean. Didn't know if it's because the Caribbean is closer or because there's no snorkeling in the Med.

We did a Med cruise last August and I don't think anyone on the ship did any snorkeling. It's a very port intensive itinerary so we were spending most of our days shlepping about cities, museums, and ruins. We went to the beach in Mykonos but it didn't look like a great place to snorkel.

Hi, I scuba dived in the Med. off Spain, and if it was any indication of the rest of the Med. I'd think snorkeling/diving would be poor. I know my friends in Europe go to the Red Sea (with all the strife and issues) instead of the Med. so my guess would be it's not a great spot. However, I only had one point of comparison.

bogotababe Posted February 29, 2008 Author #4 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I kind of figured that was the case, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks for the responses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcrow Posted March 2, 2008 #5 Share Posted March 2, 2008 We were booked on a reposition out of Barcelona last year and looked into diving. There were several diver operators south of Barcelona that offered diving, just not in December. I am thinking it sounded like deep dives though, so snorkeling may not be good.
