Why dive here
With 46+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, sea turtles and cuttlefish - Canyon offers some of Istria Peninsula's richest wall diving. Water ranges 12-26°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Canyon site in Istria offers a solid wall dive. You follow the natural contours, dropping down alongside rock faces that host patches of Paramuricea clavata, their delicate branches swaying gently. Keep an eye out for Bittium reticulatum snails grazing the surfaces and the occasional flash of Talochlamys pusio scallops tucked into crevices. It’s a good choice for divers looking for a relaxed exploration of Mediterranean wall ecology, without needing any advanced skills.
