Pnigmenos Bay is the first cove at the back of Telendos, a very small island opposite Kalymnos. The cove is accessed only by boat. The dive is easy and definitely suitable for beginners, but it is also of great interest even for more experienced divers.

Up to 20m depth

By boat

Up to 10m of swimming

No amenities

It has no shipwreck

Due to the fact that there is no road network in Telendos, we parked in Kalymnos and used an inflatable boat to get there. Unfortunately this spot cannot be accessed from the beach, although it has a beach nearby – and in fact quite beautiful- you have to walk a great distance on a dirt road.

THE COAST

The beach is not organized, but it is not bad for swimming.

ENTRY TO THE SEA

We dived straight from the boat, somewhere in the middle of the cove, swam a little to the left side of the bay facing the beach and dived immediately.

THE DIVE

The dive was quite easy and the underwater gorges help you navigate. The maximum depth we reached was 15 meters and in general the visibility was quite good, without any currents.

The place was quite lively and very interesting, as in several places we passed through smaller or larger gorges where you could stand, observe and explore up close the underwater part of the rocks. The water was quite warm due to the season; however we preferred one-piece wetsuits for greater safety due to the rocky environment.

Βέρα Κούμπουλα

Μόνιμος κάτοικος κεντρικής Ευρώπης και δυστυχώς απομακρυσμένη από ενδιαφέροντες βυθούς. Πρώτη εμπειρία κατάδυσης στο εξωτικό Μπαλί κι από τότε η υποθαλάσσια χελώνα έγινε η καλύτερή μου φίλη! Αρκετά αρχάρια ακόμα στις καταδύσεις, αλλά με ολοένα αυξανόμενο ενθουσιασμό για τον υδάτινο κόσμο. Στόχος κάθε καλοκαίρι να αναπληρώνω το χαμένο χρόνο σε ελληνικές παραλίες και βυθούς!

SAFETY FIRST!

Σε κάθε κατάδυση ακολουθήστε το πλάνο που έχετε συζητήσει από πριν με τον buddy σας. Μην υπερβαίνετε τα προσωπικά σας όρια και τα όρια της εκπαίδευσής σας, ενώ αν είστε κουρασμένοι ή έχετε ξενυχτήσει την προηγούμενη, θα ήταν ίσως προτιμότερο να καταδυθείτε κάποια άλλη φορά.Καλές αναδύσεις!
