Zuckerhut, Grgur
Sugar Cone Dive Site is a popular diving location situated on the northern side of Grgur Island, in the pristine waters of Croatia. Easily accessible by boat, it takes only 15 minutes to reach this breathtaking site.
Divers of all levels, from beginners to experts, can enjoy exploring the underwater wonders that Sugar Cone has to offer. As you descend into the crystal-clear waters with a visibility of 18m, you'll be greeted by a diverse range of marine life.
Octopus, scorpionfish, nudibranchs, damselfish, wrasse, and sea bream are just a few of the fascinating species you can encounter during your dive. The highlight of Sugar Cone is its magnificent wall, which drops down to a maximum depth of 40m. To fully appreciate this stunning underwater landscape, swim alongside the wall, keeping it on your right side. This allows you to circumnavigate the deeper side while exploring the shallower side in the opposite direction.
As you venture deeper, you'll be captivated by the vibrant colors of the sponges that adorn the wall. Keep a keen eye out for the various species of nudibranchs that make their home on these sponges. Exploring the cracks in the wall near the plateau, where you can anchor safely, adds an extra dimension to your dive and can be done during your safety stop.
For an optimal diving experience, we recommend diving at Sugar Cone in the morning when the sun illuminates the wall, creating a mesmerizing display of light and color. With its stunning underwater scenery and diverse marine life, Sugar Cone Dive Site promises an unforgettable diving experience for divers of all levels.
