    Samonjin, off the Istrian coast, generally offers a pleasant enough dive. You'll likely find a mix of smaller Mediterranean reef fish darting between rocks and perhaps a crab or two tucked away. It's a site that suits divers looking for a relaxed, easy dive, without too much in the way of strong currents or deep exploration. Good for a second dive of the day.
