    Maria Loretto, Wörthersee, is a straightforward dive in Istria. At a shallow nine meters, it's perfect for a relaxed afternoon dip, or for those just getting comfortable with their buoyancy. We often spot a variety of small Mediterranean fish darting between the rocks and the occasional crab scuttling across the bottom. The visibility is usually pretty good here, making it an easy, pleasant dive without too many surprises. It’s a solid pick for beginners or anyone looking for a calm, easy entry into the Wörthersee.
