    Ljuta offers a straightforward dive to 28m, making it a good choice for newer divers in the Kornati Islands. We've seen various small Mediterranean species here, though nothing particularly striking. It’s a pleasant enough spot if you're looking for a relaxed exploration without strong currents, but don't expect dramatic encounters.
