JUBILEE SHOALS PINNACLE
Cyprus
Jubilee Shoals Pinnacle is a pillar that rises up to 40 meters from the sea floor. It's a site for technical divers. Start at the top and descend to 18 meters where there is a large cave. The entrance is 3 meters high and 5 meters wide. Inside you'll find an abundance of corals, algae and other marine life such as hawksbill turtles, lionfish, spotted nudibranchs and lobsters. Leave the cave at about 40 meters to ascend again along the outside of the pillar which is equally beautiful as its interior. You will see a magnificent habitat full of schools of fish and small marine life.
Particulars
