Excellent French-speaking diving club

I did Elephant Cave with a little apprehension, but Titouan knew how to put me at ease and fortunately because it was a magnificent dive. A cave experience that I have never had, I loved it. The club only organizes trips in small groups, it's not a factory like in other clubs! So yes, €130 is a budget, but for this price the equipment is provided, which is not the case with the competitor! The real plus is that Titouan, the boss, is French. Good to know, the club is not in Chania, but 20 minutes away by car.

Best place to dive in Crete

What an amazing experience! My girlfriend and I had an incredible time diving with this company. I did the Elephant Cave dive, while my girlfriend did a Discover Scuba Dive. From start to finish, the team was extremely helpful, professional, and friendly. Everything was explained clearly, and we felt comfortable and well looked after throughout the entire experience. The dives themselves were absolutely beautiful and definitely an experience we will never forget. The Elephant Cave was especially impressive! Thank you so much for the great service, guidance, and unforgettable dives. We would definitely recommend this dive company to anyone looking for an amazing diving experience! 🤿🐘🌊

Elephant cave dive

Thanks to Matt, Titouan and Sotiris for a fabulous morning on Tuesday. One diving and one snorkelling and we were both very well looked after. Great experience at a unique dive site. Would highly recommend Kefi Dive to anyone visiting Chania

The best of Crete!

I chose KefiDivers for my dive experience in Crete and I couldn’t be happier with my choice! They were incredibly quick to reply to my emails and answered all my questions and doubts with kindness, even giving me detailed information about public transportation to get there. On the day of the dive, the whole team was very welcoming, friendly and professional. I went there especially for the Elephant Cave dive, which consists of a double dive and since they only allow a maximum of three divers at a time, we had the cave completely to ourselves. This made the atmosphere feel even more authentic, peaceful and magical! I have already dived in many extraordinary places, but diving in Elephant Cave was truly one of the most impressive experiences I’ve ever had. I just have to come back one day to see the monk seals that apparently use to sleep inside the cave! Thank you, KefiDivers, you are the best!!

Operator response

Thank you for such a wonderful review! The small group size, especially at the Elephant Cave, makes a real difference and we're glad you got to experience it that way. You'll have to come back for those monk seals, when they show up, it's something else entirely. Hope to see you again soon!

Boat dives - Elephant Cave with Kefi Divers

We are 2 certified divers and we highly recommend this dive center! Titouan accompanies you in total safety to very beautiful sites (the Lighthouse drop-off and Elephant Cave for us). With Matthew and Sotiris, they form a great company with clean and welcoming facilities, good equipment, and above all, a very good atmosphere! Together, they speak French, English, and Greek and make themselves available for any questions. Thank you to them for these wonderful dives from the boat!

Amazing diving experience with Kefi Divers

I had a great time diving during my stay in Crete. Titouan was extremely professional, patient, and friendly, and always made me feel safe and relaxed underwater. You can really tell how passionate he is about diving and about giving guests the best possible experience. What impressed me most was how personally everything was organized. Even though I did not book a private tour, they arranged the dives in a way that I ended up diving alone with the instructor, which made the whole experience much more enjoyable and relaxed. I really appreciated that extra effort. A big thank you as well to Matthew, who was always welcoming, helpful, and very kind from the beginning. The whole atmosphere at Kefi Divers is friendly, relaxed, and professional at the same time. The equipment was in excellent condition, everything was very well organized, and the dive sites were absolutely beautiful. Overall, one of the best diving experiences I’ve had so far. I can highly recommend Kefi Divers to anyone visiting Crete — I would definitely dive with them again.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your amazing review and kind words! It was an absolute pleasure diving with you here in Crete. I’m really happy to hear that you felt safe, relaxed, and well looked after throughout your experience. Titouan is incredibly passionate about diving and teaching, so I know your comments will mean a lot to him. At Kefi Divers, we always try to keep our groups small and personal, so I’m glad this helped make your dives even more enjoyable. Thank you as well for your kind words about me and the atmosphere at the dive centre. Creating a friendly, relaxed, and professional environment is exactly what we aim for. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are very happy to hear this was one of your best diving experiences so far. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back for more dives in the future! Safe travels and hopefully see you again soon 🌊

Kefi Divers Five Stars….. and then some … Excellent

Kefi Divers Five Stars….. and then some So where to start with the team at Kefi. I had emailed them ahead of our holiday with a load of questions and Matt actually made the effort to call me, chat through everything and then messaged me back the bullet points and the prices so I had everything. When I popped in, they were really welcoming but the fact that they only ever dive in small groups of max 4 was a real winner for me. The equipment was top notch and all worked well, but the care and attention they took from the briefing all the way through to the end was 5 star! On the morning of the dive, they had to make a change due to something outside their control, but they made sure that I was happy and offered me a number of options. The refresher dive at Koutalas was actually really chilled and enjoyable and Titouan even found me a Cuttlefish and an Octopus. However the Elephant Caves in the afternoon was one of my top ever dives. Two other divers had cancelled on them due to sickness but they did not hesitate in giving me a personal Dive out there rather than even suggest I reschedule. The third partner at Kefi is Soritis and he is the boat captain. Amazingly his uncle was the first ever diver to enter the cave’s back in 1999 I think! I loved that connection between Kefi and the Caves. No spoilers but the dive itself is just magnificent. I can only recommend Matt, Titouan and Soritis. Matt is English but the other guys are totally fluent. The briefing was brilliantly delivered on both dives and at every point in the day the focus was on the customer having the best dive day possible. Both on my snorkelling trip and dive day I saw other divers companies with much larger numbers and they did not get as much dive time because of that. I find that small, more personal groups work so much better. The RIB is fun and all part of the adventure going out to the caves. If you love diving, are in Almeryda and want to dive with a team who care about your experience, have good quality gear and smile, then you cannot go wrong with Kefi. Thanks guys - enjoyed it so much will book my kids on a DSD!

Operator response

Thank you so much for such an incredibly detailed and generous review — it genuinely means a lot to all of us at Kefi. I’m really glad the call and follow-up messages before your holiday helped put your mind at ease. We know choosing a dive centre (especially in a new place) comes with a lot of questions, so taking the time to go through everything properly is important to us. It was great having you dive with us, and I’m really pleased that our small group approach stood out. Limiting our dives to a maximum of four divers allows us to focus fully on each person’s experience, comfort, and enjoyment — and it’s great to hear that this made such a difference for you. Thank you also for understanding the change on the morning of the dive. We always try to be as flexible and transparent as possible when things outside our control come up, and I’m glad you enjoyed both Koutalas and the Elephant Caves. Titouan will be very happy to hear his cuttlefish and octopus finds made your day! Elephant Caves really is a special site for us, and I love that you appreciated the connection Soritis and his family have with it — it’s a piece of local diving history we’re proud to be part of. We’re also grateful for your kind words about our briefings, equipment, and overall care throughout the day. Knowing that you noticed the difference between small, personal dive experiences and larger group operations really reinforces why we do things the way we do. And hearing that you’re already thinking about booking your kids on a DSD is fantastic — we’d absolutely love to welcome them to the underwater world when the time comes. Thank you again for diving with us, for the trust you placed in our team, and for taking the time to share your experience in such detail. All the best, Matt Kefi Divers

Great Dive shop and DiveMasters/Instructors to have an amazing experience

I highly recommend Kefi Divers, Matt and Titouan were amazing to go diving with while on Crete in Greece. Mother nature was not very cooperative but they made it the best experience possible and were very safety conscientious and put our safety first and foremost. Their knowledge of the area and the conditions put us at ease and their expertise with diving made us feel comfortable with the choices made. I will definitely dive with them again given the opportunity and highly recommend them to anyone that is in the area looking for a great dive shop and some great dive instructors/divemasters. Thanks Matt and Titouan.

We really appreciate the recommendation and would absolutely love to dive with you again if you’re ever back in Crete. Thanks again for diving with us! – Matt & Titouan
