Lesvos Scuba Oceanic Centre (Petra)
39° 19.8′ N · 26° 10.6′ E · approximate
A long-running dive centre (since 2002) based at Petra beach, diving the volcanic reefs, caves and the Korakas amphora wreck along the north coast between Petra and Molyvos.
Practical
Coordinate is approximate — a point on Petra seafront derived from OpenStreetMap; taucher.net gives the address as Yako Bar, Restaurant Petra Beach, Petra 81109. Reviews (2011–2018) describe two boat dives a day chosen by weather from about 20 sites, PADI and CMAS standards, and the Korakas wreck at 15–30 m with amphorae and a large anchor; one 2018 review says the Petra base opened Sat, Sun, Mon and Wed, with the instructor diving from Mytilene other days. Greeka lists the centre at the Barracuda Club, Haramida. Its old website (lesvoscuba.gr) now redirects to an unrelated site — confirm it still operates before planning around it.
