Why dive here
With 138+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles and cuttlefish - Amfore offers some of Vis & Biševo's richest wreck diving.
Amfore, off Vis, is a gentle dive, mostly shallow. We’ve found scattered Roman amphorae here, remnants of ancient trade, lying among the rocks and sand. It's an easy drift, suitable for newer divers or those looking for a relaxing second dive, often with damselfish darting between the fragments. Keep an eye out for octopus tucked into the pottery.
