Why dive here
With 46+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, sea turtles and cuttlefish - Sv Nikol offers some of Istria Peninsula's richest diving. Water ranges 12-26°C, warmest July, August, September.
Sv Nikol, off the Istrian coast, offers a straightforward dive suitable for those looking for a relaxed experience. The site features gentle slopes and rocky formations where we’ve often spotted small octopus tucked into crevices and schools of bream drifting by. It’s a good choice for newer divers or a calm afternoon dive to practice buoyancy. Expect typical Mediterranean reef life rather than large pelagics here.
