Big Rock

Big Rock, located at the entrance of Goli's Island, is a must-visit dive site for divers exploring the waters of Croatia. Just a 20-minute boat ride away, this site is easily accessible for all levels of divers. As you anchor in the shallow part in front of the island, you can already catch a glimpse of the breathtaking underwater world where the drop-off begins.

The visibility at Big Rock is impressive, reaching up to 18 meters, allowing divers to fully immerse themselves in the vibrant marine life. This dive site offers a diverse range of encounters, including scorpionfish, various species of sea bream, nudibranchs, octopus, conger eels, mullet, damselfish, and wrasse. Every moment underwater is filled with awe-inspiring marine creatures.

Exploring the western side of Big Rock, divers will be treated to a wall that drops down to a maximum depth of 40 meters. On your right side, at around 40 meters, you'll come across a small rock adorned with colorful gorgonians, sponges, fish, lobsters, and conger eels. It's a mesmerizing sight that showcases the diversity and beauty of the underwater ecosystem.

On the eastern side, the wall extends even deeper, providing an intriguing sense of depth. As divers swim away from the little rock and look up, they will witness the sun's rays piercing through the water, illuminating the wall with a magical light show. It's the perfect opportunity to conduct a safety stop while leisurely exploring the shallow area of Big Rock.

Big Rock is an ideal dive site for all levels of divers, from beginners to advanced and expert divers. Its close proximity to the Admission Discharge Section (Quarantine) in the Municipality of Lopar, Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, Croatia, makes it easily accessible for diving enthusiasts in the area.

Immerse yourself in the wonders of Big Rock, and experience the thrill of diving in Croatia's pristine waters.
