This is what makes diving in Greece unique, it\u2019s like an impromptu<strong> archeological adventure<\/strong> every time you slip into the water. There\u2019s also considerable life in the seas. There\u2019s the chance you\u2019ll find groupers,<strong> turtles<\/strong> and even<strong> dolphins<\/strong>, but your best bet for marine life is to slow down and think small. The Aegean has a wonderful collection of <strong>nudibranchs<\/strong>, invertebrates, crabs, shrimp, eels, <strong>seahorses<\/strong> and other easily overlookable stealth critters. Don\u2019t forgo the diving once the sun goes down, however. Night diving is particularly interesting because that\u2019s when cuttlefish, <strong>conger eels<\/strong> and <strong>octopi<\/strong> venture out of their daytime lairs.<\/p>\n<p>More photos by Richard Keaney will be frequently added to our album <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/media\/set\/?set=a.386354571483562.1073741826.339501046168915&amp;type=3\">Keaneys Critters<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Worm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1745\" alt=\"Worm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Worm-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Worm-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Worm-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Octopus.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1746\" alt=\"Octopus\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Octopus-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Octopus-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Octopus-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Fireworm_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1747\" alt=\"Fireworm_1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Fireworm_1-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Fireworm_1-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Fireworm_1-768x1024.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Fireworm_1.jpg 1740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People may not think of the Aegean Sea as a top diving destination, but we believe it&#8217;s a treasure waiting to be discovered&#8230; On just about any dive, there\u2019s a &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-diving"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1744"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1744\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1749,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1744\/revisions\/1749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1744"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.blackrockdivecentre.com\/greece\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
