Sintzi Spring

We first dived this cave in October of 2016 and have dived numerous times ever since. In fact we completed most of our cave diver certification training at Sintzi. It is one of our favorite cave diving destinations. One of the caves in Greece which offers great visibility.

The cave is situated at an altitude of approximately 700 meters a few kilometers distance from Kandila in the Peloponnese. A previous expedition in 2015 led by a team of cave divers in cooperation and partnership with SPELEO club explored the cave to a depth of 186 meters! These team members were Fondas Pitsinelis (Speleo), Michalis Spyrakis, Thomas Zournatzis, Christos Monte, Valasi Christodoulou (Speleo), George Sklavounis (Speleo), Nikitas Simatos, Antonis Krents, Stathis Kavadas (Speleo), Socratis Antzoulis, Dimitris Antzoulis. The habitat you see in the video has been setup by Speleo Club in previous expeditions and was used during this mission.

Previous to this in 2009, members of the Hellenic Speleologic and Exploration club George Tzavelas and Komninos Boutaras, had reached the depth of 153m. In fact these cave divers provided valuable information and assistance to the team above to further explore the cave and ultimately achieve its goals. The dive in the video below is from August 2018.
