Diving in Croatia

 

Who we are

Our dive centre is on the romantic Island of Murter in Central Dalmatia. Dives in the National Park Kornati, the wreck of Francesca di Rimini and the red gorgonia in Babuljasi definitely count to the high lights of the Adriatic Sea. With our speed boats we reach fascinating, but sometimes more distant locations within reasonable time. After the dives there is enough time to enjoy the overwhelming landscape and culture above the water.

We offer education according PADI and PDA guidelines. Our offer includes all levels from introductory dives to professional certification of dive instructors. We are specialized in children diving and children courses and besides our exquisite experience we provide you also with special children equipment.

We think that a dive base should do more than guiding the group to dive sites. With our activities SEA MORE we want to transfer - together with several scientific groups - awareness and knowledge about the life in Poseidon’s Garden to our clients.

 

Where we are

Murter is one of 1185 Croatian Islands and is connected with a bridge to the mainland. Most of our guests come by car using the comfortable A1 highway. Close to Murter there are two big airports: Zadar about 60 km and Split about 100 km away.

By caressing the coastline over millions of years, the Adriatic sea has created a unique landscape. Today this part of the coast with its diversity of islands, romantic bays, serpentine roads and breathtaking summits has developed into a tourist attraction.

Since a long time the Kornati Islands are known as a sailor’s paradise. Only recently it was found out that the under water landscape is minimum as impressive as the archipelago above the sea. Around Murter you find towns with historical centres like Zadar and Sibenik and Krka national park with its waterfalls.

 

What you can expect

If you expect high life, disco till late morning and crowded bars you could be a bit disappointed. What you can expect is the full Mediterranean flair: romantic bays, the smell of pine trees, a nice fish dinner in the harbour, watching a kitschy sunset and perfect dives. If you think that there are no colours in the Mediterranean sea you will be surprised. We take you to walls covered with red fan corals and colourful sponges. We show you caves and places with pieces of old amphora and sometimes dolphins join us on the way to our dive sites.

 

The Dive Sites

 

Steep walls with drop-offs to the blue are characteristic for the area around Murter and the Kornati Archipelago. Some of them are overgrown with red fan corals which gloom in an incredible deep red when you point with your torch. We support a scientific group that starts a mapping in October 2007 of these gorgonia walls. Not too much is known about these corals since they grow mostly below 25 m only.
