    Žusterna is a shallow, easy dive in the Istria Peninsula, perfect for absolute beginners or those needing a quick refresh. The maximum depth is 5 metres, making it ideal for skills practice or just getting comfortable in the water. You'll generally find small schools of fish and maybe some crabs scuttling over the rocky bottom. It’s not a site for big pelagics, but it’s a friendly spot to get wet.
