About this site
Peristera lies off the northern coast of the Sporades island group in Thessaly, in the Aegean Sea near Alonnisos. The island is best known for the ancient Peristera shipwreck nearby, a classical-era Greek merchant vessel site that sits within a protected marine park. Access to sites around the island is generally controlled through licensed dive operators based on Alonnisos, given the archaeological sensitivity of the waters here.
