Amphora Reef, Kreta
★★★★☆
(642)
You can find pieces of various amphorae here. Amphora is an ancient container with a certain characteristic shape and size, from as least as early the Neolithic Period. Amphorae were used in vast numbers for the transport and storage of various products, both liquid and dry, but mostly for wine.
As in most of the dive sites in this area, you will most likely see dusky grouper, moray eels, octopuses, and sometimes amber jacks of small sizes.
