Underwater heritage, accessible to all
The Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities is pioneering, opening to the general public the first accessible underwater archaeological sites in Greece, in Alonissos and the Western Pagasetic Gulf.
We offer certified divers the adventure of exploring ancient shipwrecks and, at the same time, we bring the same experience out of the water, making it accessible to everyone through impressive virtual diving (VR) and unique digital applications.
Our goal is to make our rich cultural heritage a living and accessible experience for everyone.
