  1. Exploring Jubilee Shoals: A Hidden Gem For Divers In Cyprus Nestled off the southern coast of Cyprus, near the quaint village of Pissouri, lies one of the Mediterranean’s lesser-known diving destinations: Jubilee Shoals. This spectacular dive site is renowned among seasoned divers for its dramatic underwater cliff and cave formations, offering a truly unique diving experience. Jubilee Shoals is not just another dive site; it is a natural masterpiece sculpted by the forces of nature. The main attraction here is a massive underwater cliff that descends sharply into the azure depths of the Mediterranean. The cliff features a series of caves and crevices, each forming its unique underwater landscape teeming with marine life. The topography of Jubilee Shoals makes it a fascinating site for divers. The cliff begins at a relatively shallow depth of about 17 meters and plunges to approximately 40 meters. This makes it accessible to both advanced and intermediate divers, although the deeper sections are recommended only for those with appropriate deep diving experience. Diving at Jubilee Shoals is like stepping into another world. As you descend, the water transitions from a shimmering turquoise to a deep blue, revealing the grandeur of the cliff. The visibility here can reach up to 30 meters on a clear day, making it an excellent spot for underwater photography. The caves at Jubilee Shoals are particularly captivating. The largest of these is spacious enough to swim through and explore. Inside, the play of light through the water creates an ethereal atmosphere, while the walls are adorned with a mosaic of coral and sponges. Marine life at Jubilee Shoals is both rich and varied, thanks to the site's complex structures that provide ample habitat for a variety of species. Divers can expect to see schools of amberjack and barracuda patrolling the open water, while groupers and moray eels hide among the rocks and crevices. The occasional turtle is also known to visit, adding to the site’s allure. The presence of strong currents adds an element of challenge to diving at Jubilee Shoals. These currents bring nutrient-rich waters that not only enhance visibility but also attract a diverse array of marine life. However, divers should be aware of the conditions and dive within their limits. Safety is paramount when diving at Jubilee Shoals. Due to its location and depth, it is essential to dive with a reputable dive operator who knows the area well. These professionals can provide guidance on navigating the site safely and making the most of the diving experience. Conservation efforts are in place to protect the natural beauty of Jubilee Shoals. Divers are encouraged to adhere to no-touch, no-take principles to preserve the integrity of the underwater environment. This ensures that the shoals remain a pristine sanctuary for future generations of divers to enjoy.

  2. For those interested in exploring Jubilee Shoals, the best times to dive are during the spring and autumn months.

Jubilee Shoals remains a relatively undiscovered gem compared to other more frequented dive sites in Cyprus.
