What's So Great About Scuba Diving in Croatia?
Croatia, and Biograd specifically, is well-known for its commitment to environmental protection. The absence of heavy industry near the coastline makes it possible to see for over thirty meters (nearly one hundred feet) underwater. The reefs are overgrown with dynamic coral formations that make a home for many fish and plants because fishing has been prohibited in the Biograd area since 1980. This fact makes Biograd one of the most stunning locations for Scuba Diving Croatia has to offer.
You can see hundreds of species of marine wildlife, including sandy bottom rays, cat and dog sharks, lobsters, sponges, red and yellow gorgonias, and sea slugs. Each fish is vibrantly colored in ways that you’d never see on land. Plants are similarly colored, in fantastic purples, oranges, reds and yellows. The crystal-clear water in the Adriatic Sea will ensure that you see everything perfectly.
Each Diving Center in Croatia can take you to over twenty unique diving locations all around the Kornati islands, allowing you to stay for a month, go diving every day, and never have the same experience twice. With sea temperatures consistently over 25 degrees C (77 degrees F), you won't have to worry about cold water. You can explore underwater caves, or you can stick to roaming the sea floor covered in fascinating rock formations and teeming with every sort of wildlife.
Wreck Diving
In addition to wildlife diving, wreck diving in Biograd is also a major attraction. Biograd is home to a number of shipwrecks, many of which are still being discovered. Some notable wrecks in the area include the Baron Gautsch, a passenger ferry from 1914, the Francesca da Rimini, an Italian warship from 1944, and the remains of Roman wrecks with 1st-century amphorae, all of which are now home to many species of fish.
