Info needed for diving Skiathos, Greece

[Blue Dream]

Hi all,

We are traveling on monday to Skiathos. Does anyone have experience/information about dive centers, spots, wrecks and so on.
Does Greece use DIN or INT? Is EANx available there? Now in midd/end sept. should i dive dry or wet?

Thanks a lot for all inputs!

Erik

I can't speak specifically for Skiathos but I've seen Nitrox and Helium near there. You should have your choice of DIN or YOKE regs, not sure what INT is. In Sept, I was diving in a 3mm and finding it a bit cold. If you're from Norway, 3mm should be fine for you at this time of the year. Personally, I'd do 3mm in Aug and add 1mm per month and start reversing in March.

I think INT is short for INT yoke or International yoke aka yoke. When I was in Egypt they also kept referring to yokes as INTs.
