A great reef with an added bonus, it is a 12m deep reef covered in history. The history being in the form of hundreds of ancient Greek amphoras! Probably once containing wine or olive oil. How these amphoras came to be scattered over the sea bed is a mystery lost in time maybe once the site of ancient Greek merchant ship wreck, who knows? Underneath only one rock ledge on the reef you will find the very shy red and white stripped squirrel fish. Please note that the removal and the photography of the amphorae is strictly forbidden by the Greek laws. The Potteries is a very easy dive and is best dived to a maximum depth of 12m,after this depth the reef gives way to sand so stay shallow and look out for octopus, and scorpion fish hiding in the rocks. You can also expect to see various reef fish including many types of shoaling sea bream and colorful wrasse. The Potteries is the closest site to a nearby fish farm and so because of this can sometimes throw up a few surprises.
