Welcome to Cyprus
federation of underwater scientific committee (full member of CMAS) the
place you can learn in an academic discipline Scuba Diving and
Specializations courses such as Underwater Marine Biology, Marine
Sciences, Underwater Archeology, Scientific diving, in theory and field
work. Typically, Cyprus Coastline is marked by the crystal unpolluted
sea with very high underwater visibility. It is a life time experience,
especially when you enjoy the sea for days and weeks and months. In
fact, the revealing truth is that it is much more exciting and very
different from the life on a still land if you love sea, the blue sky
and the sea-breeze. This combination offers the ideal place for intro
dives and professional dives in southeast Mediterranean Sea. From the
scientific diving point of view, the rugged coastline has claimed many
ships over the centuries, where you can dive at spectacular world’s
oldest and biggest shipwrecks like mazotos shipwreck, MS Zenobia in
Larnaka region, Liberty shipwreck in Paralimni region, just to name a
few among many others where scuba diving is a challenging issue for
underwater sciences and marine affairs. The coast of Cyprus is home to
a wealth of interesting marine life such as Stingrays, groupers,
Scorpions, Amberjacks octopus and a great variety of seashells,
Nonetheless, the abundance of Posidonia oceanica meadows its very
important segment of the ecosystem as it can consider the major part
for marine biodiversity in the Mediterranean sea. The history of the
Mediterranean region is crucial to perception the origins and evolvement
of many modern societies, and it’s considering to be a sea for research.
The eastern Mediterranean is subdivided into two major basins. In
oceanography, a Mediterranean sea is a mostly consider as a close sea
that has limited exchange of deep water with outer oceans and where the
water circulation is dominated by salinity 38 ppt and temperature up to
28 Degrees Celsius, differences rather than winds.
Latest studies
in terms of seismic and microfossil have suggested that the seafloor
never was completely dry. There is such a vast history to this body of
water that is bordered by Asia, Europe and Africa where Cyprus is the
link of these continents.
