Best for intermediate divers, 5-68m, boat entry, moderate current.
Gorgonien is a reef wall dive located off Krk Island, Croatia, featuring a drop-off that extends from 5 metres down to 68 metres. This site is suited for intermediate divers due to the depth and the presence of moderate currents that can shift unexpectedly. Visibility is high, typically ranging between 30 and 50 metres, allowing for clear observation of the wall structure. Divers should maintain controlled buoyancy to avoid contact with sharp coral and rocks present along the reef. Given the depth range and current conditions, advanced certification is required, and nitrox is recommended for deeper profiles. Exposure protection is necessary as water temperatures fluctuate between 11 and 25 degrees Celsius.

Current strength and direction can shift with little warning along the drop-off, so confirm conditions with the local dive operator before descending and agree on a drift plan with your buddy. An advanced open water certification is the minimum requirement, and nitrox familiarity helps if you plan to push the deeper sections.
