The dive
Blue Haze sits at Ammos tou Kambouri Beach in Ayia Napa. Entry is from the beach or down a few steps, into water that is very shallow at the start. A small channel leads out through the shallows to around 2 m, and from there the seabed slopes gently on to a maximum depth of around 6 m.
With easy beach access and shallow, sloping terrain, the site is used mainly for try dives and training sessions. New divers can practise their skills in water that never gets deeper than 6 m, and the small channel gives a clear route from the beach out to the slope and back again at the end of each session.
