It’s no surprise that sun worshippers looking for a little more on their beach breaks want to explore the beautiful world under the sea. Just waiting to be discovered, you’ll find an array of marine life and beautiful coral reefs. To help make your diving decisions a little easier, we’ve put together the top diving hot spots for your holidays in Greece, Turkey and Egypt.

The Amphorae Caves just off the coast of Cyprus offer a fantastic archaeological dive that can take you through an exploration of striking caves and gullies. As well as the island’s range of historical land sites, holidays in Greece are also an underwater haven.

Discover the excellent dive site of Kolovri Island, known as Odysseus Rock, as you head to the west coast of Corfu on your Greek holidays. Divers of all abilities can enjoy the range of experiences here from exploring caves, walls and some pretty big fish. A range of wonders under the sea can be seen, including red sea fans, golden Zoanthids and encrusting sponges.

If you’re looking for an ingenious way to cool off when the temperature rises on your holidays in Egypt, try visiting one of the busiest wreck dive sites in the world - the Thistlegorm in Sharm el Sheikh. Attracting a plethora of marine life from barracuda and jacks to grouper and soldier fish, this 400ft British armed Merchant Navy ship is sat on the rich seabed in the Straits of Guba.

Turkey holidays are the perfect opportunity to combine diving along with your other beach break activities. You’ll have plenty of chance to get out there and explore if you head to Bodrum on the south east coast, as the diving season runs from April to November there. You can feast your eyes upon everything, from reefs to wrecks, and you’ll see an array of underwater life including octopus and stingray to morays and sea bream.
