World Diving Federation to show off in Crete

If you’re heading to Crete this summer don’t forget to take in the spectacle of the diving showcase at Agios Nikolaos.

On August 26-27 the local municipatility of Agios Nikolaos and the World High Diving Federation will be putting on a show at the cliffs at Lake Voulismeni, where ten international cliff divers will show their somersaults and twists, Friday and Saturday, four shows per day, including a night show.

During the two show days, children of all ages will have the opportunity to learn tricks from professional high divers. There are only two requirements: they need to be safe swimmers and they are looking for fun!

The workshop at Lake Voulismeni starts at a diving level of around 2.5 metres, where the children will learn how to enter the water correctly. The brave ones can also learn a somersault. Then depending on their skill and age, the children will have the opportunity to dive from higher levels. The maximum diving height for the children will be around 10 metres.
