Petrokaravo Reef Dive

37° 36.8′ N · 23° 28.6′ E

The rocky islets of Petrokaravo, mid-way between Poros and Aegina, are a known Saronic reef dive reached by boat from Poros.

Practical

Coordinate is the SailingIssues marker for Petrokaravo (OpenStreetMap islet at 37.61387N 23.47811E). A Greek diver on ScubaBoard (2012) lists Petrokaravo reef, about 9 nm from Askeli, among the dive sites reached from Poros. No depths or site descriptions are published in the sources we could open, so dive it only with a local operator (e.g. Poros Diving Center). The rocks are a navigation hazard on the Aegina–Poros route: approach in daylight and calm weather, and do not anchor a yacht here.
