This deep diving site is located offshore of Alsancak region. Usually we tie up our boat to site's mooring in other sites, however we do not have mooring at Tridacna so we drop our anchor that feel like a little bit adventure.
Tridacna has different bottom surface than other diving sites.
Diving siteis parallel to the bottom surface also it has middle sized rocks, pieces of posidonias groups and areas covered with sand unlikely other diving sites, which are generally consisted of walls and rocks in North Cyprus.
This diving site starts from 33 meters to reach 45 meters depth. For this reason, this site is wonderful for Advanced Open Divers who wants to test their diving abilities.
