Why dive here
With 138+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles and cuttlefish - SS Zagreb Wreck offers some of Vis & Biševo's richest wreck diving.
The SS Zagreb, a steamship sunk during World War II, sits upright at 29 metres, making it a good depth for advanced open-water divers. We've always found the visibility here to be reliably decent, often pushing past 20 metres, so you get a clear view of the bow and stern. Schools of damselfish shimmer around the superstructure, and we've spotted resident scorpionfish tucked into the deck plating on most dives. It’s an intermediate dive, straightforward enough for those gaining experience with deeper wrecks, and the occasional light current keeps things interesting without being overly challenging.
