Komiža anchors a concentrated dive scene built around wrecks, deep walls, and cave systems, all reached by boat. The Teti and Vassilios T offer accessible wreck dives across a broad depth range, while sites like Ploce and Bisevo Wall push into serious deep-water territory for advanced divers. Caves and caverns feature throughout, from beginner-friendly Gaće to the demanding Velika Špilja. Nudibranch diversity is a consistent highlight, and the Mediterranean Moray is encountered across virtually every site.

Advanced and expert divers are well served by deep sites including Ploce, Bisevo Wall, and the technical wreck Marinero.
