    Prst, off the Istria Peninsula, is a good spot for newer divers looking for a relaxed experience. The reef levels out at around 24 meters, offering gentle exploration. We've seen various smaller Mediterranean species here, though nothing particularly dramatic. It’s a straightforward dive, well-suited for shaking off the rust or gaining confidence in shallower depths.
