Scuba or snorkel on Rhodes and Corfu
 
We will be on a Greek Isle cruise next June and will have about 10 hours on both Rhodes and Corfu. We would like to do scuba and snorkeling, possibly resort dive too. Any suggestions or websites to visit?

Hello,

I did quite a bit of diving off Corfu in June and really enjoyed the experience. There is a good club that works out of Paleokastritsa called Achilleon dive centre - I got 10% off all of my dives just for emailing them in advance and it was about 40E/dive (with equipment) then my 5th dive was free. Some nice dive spots with a fair number of fish, also some nice caves in the area too.

I should note however that 10hours in not a lot of time. I would likely focus on wonderful Corfu Town which will easily entertain you for that lenght of stay.

If interested you can view my Corfu pictures with this link. Click enter album and then you can hit slideshow to blow them up to a good size.

Wow Murphy,
I haven't looked at all of them yet, but what I have seen is great. How long were you there? We are on a 12 day cruise that goes to Rhodes, Santorini, Mykonos, Delos, Corfu, a stop near Olympia and also Turkey and Croatia. We end up in Athens. We are staying a few days after the cruise and are seeing Athens, Delphi, Meteora and the Argolis area. We can't wait.

Hi loves_to_travel. Thank you, I'm glad you are enjoying the pictures.

I was in Greece for just over 2 months and covered the Southern Peloponnese, Nafpaktos-Delphi, Lesvos, Chios, Mykonos, Santorini and Corfu. Great trip I really enjoyed mainland especially. My significant other has been to Rhodes and raves about it.

I especially enjoyed Kalafatis beach on Mykonos - I did 5 dives with the centre that sits on the far left hand side when looking at the water. This dive center is MUCH cheaper than the one on Paradise Beach (and nicer). There is a wreck dive available from here too - the Anna II ferry. I really enjoyed it.
It was about 45E/dive with equipment and the 5th dive was free.

Good Travels,

Murphy
