Scuba diving is perhaps the most addictive pastime ever, just ask a diver
We are a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Dive Resort and the premier scuba diving centre in Latchi on the North West coast of Cyprus.
We have the beautiful Akamas National Park on our doorstep, other dive centres travel the length of Cyprus to dive here!
We have three commercial scuba diving boats meaning that we can provide a more attentive service to our customers. Divers that come to our Dive Centre experience a more leisurely diving trip with space to relax and prepare equipment.
DIVE PROFESSIONALS
Our highly qualified and professional scuba diving staff have many years experience between them. They will strive to make your diving experience exceptional.
Safety and comfort is paramount and we always have the necessary first aid equipment with us, including 100% oxygen. You will always have an instructor close at hand, in the water and out, as well as surface cover. All of our diving equipment is regularly maintained and serviced, as we have our own in-house service technician. All boats come with lifejackets and full safety equipment.
At the forefront of recreational diving
Latchi Dive Centre aims to stay at the forefront of recreational diving to be able to cater to the needs of every diver. Whether the diver is breathing their first breath underwater, or planning a Tec dive using multiple gas mixtures, we are there! Latchi Dive Centre at Latchi Watersports operates 3 dive boats every day, with eight experienced and professional PADI dive staff.
The Akamas is the only large unspoiled coastal area remaining in Cyprus and one of the very few important sea turtle nesting areas in the Mediterranean.
Daily Dives in Cyprus
We are lucky to be located on the edge of the beautiful Akamas National park, with clear calm waters at all depths. Some days we can have up to 40 metres visibility. That really is Fun Diving! We have over a dozen dive sites on our stretch of coast and many people travel the length of the island to dive some of our favourites. Rich in history, these waters hold many tales about shipwrecks, roman harbours and volcanic disturbances.
Diving the Zenobia Wreck in Larnaca
The Zenobia is the Number one dive site in Cyprus and rated among the top 10 wreck dives in the world! She’s a 172m long Swedish roll-on roll-off ferry that sank on her maiden voyage from Sweden to Syria. She started to list off the coast of Cyprus due to a problem with the ballast tanks.
WHAT IT MEANS TO DIVE IN CYPRUS WITH LATCHI DIVE CENTRE

Latchi is located on the Akamas Peninsular on the north-west coast of Cyprus. It’s just a short boat ride away from the Akamas National Park and its stunning coastline, the best in Cyprus.
