Klauser See - Istria Peninsula
Guadalupe Reef offers a gentle introduction to Visayan diving. Expect a healthy coral reef, perfect for leisurely explorations. We've often spotted large schools of fusiliers here, sometimes so dense they block out the sun. It's an excellent spot for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed, multi-dive day.
