The Croatian coast of the Adriatic is adorned with the clear blue sea, wooded coastline and about 1600 islands. The southernmost part of Croatia, the Dubrovnik-Neretva County and the city of Dubrovnik abound in remains of shipwrecks, so that this part of the Croatian coast is more and more often a target of both recreational and professional divers. In close vicinity to Dubrovnik there are several shipwrecks, the attractive Elafite Archipelago walls, the red coral colonies in some places… while in the Cavtat zone there are several protected antique shipwrecks (amphora sites and pythos - pitchers for storing grains).

The local diving centres offer complete service including the organization of diving excursions in these locations, and the high quality equipment rental.

The recreational diving is a sport for everyone who feels well, regardless of age. Thanks to the pleasant sea temperature one can dive all the year round.

Diving is possible only if you possess a valid diving card issued by the Croatian Diving Union (HRS), which is valid one year after the date of issue.
