Why dive here
With 46+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, sea turtles and cuttlefish - Patersriff offers some of Istria Peninsula's richest reef diving. Water ranges 12-26°C, warmest July, August, September.
Patersriff, just off the Istrian coast, offers a straightforward reef dive that’s good for a relaxing afternoon. We often find the visibility here can be decent, letting you pick out the details on the smaller stuff. Keep an eye out for delicate fan corals, especially the violet sea fans, and you’ll likely spot several species of scallop, like the colourful queen scallops tucked into crevices. It’s a solid spot for underwater photographers looking for macro subjects, or just a pleasant, easy dive to unwind.
