The dive
One large chamber full of stalactites many metres long; a large stalagmite rises from ~-42/-45 m (9 m tall according to T2B). The fresh water is clear, with a thin halocline at the ceiling at ~-20 m, and 18 °C all year.

The formations grew when the cave was dry. The cave was discovered in January 2017; no continuation has been found.
- Depth and profile
- Vertical wall to -21 m; ceiling at its shallowest ~-15 m; max -55 m (T2B, Addicted2H2O) to almost -60 m (Grafas). 60–80 m long, 16–20 m wide, one large chamber.
- Configuration
- Roomy chamber: all configurations. You do have to carry all gear overland and down a ~3 m wall. Because of the depth: trimix.
- DPV: Not DPV-suitable (estimate)
- Single chamber of 60–80 m: no scooter needed.

This is how the planner decides who in your team may dive this cave. Rules your own trip adds (organizer, a mail, the AI) show with your trip.
How to get there
By land, close to the sea on the Mikri Repontina peninsula by Arkadiko Chorio beach (between Paralio Astros and Leonidio): hidden dirt path through the bushes, then a ~3 m vertical wall (rope needed) down to a flooded zigzag trench that leads to the entrance.
