    Punta Sokol offers a straightforward dive, popular for its accessible entry points. The rocky reef slopes gently, dotted with sponges and small anemones. We often spot octopus tucked into crevices and schools of small Mediterranean fish cruising by. It's a solid choice for an easy afternoon dive, suitable for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed exploration.
