Our guests consider this position as a special desert. As you can see on the depth, it is a very shallow position, so really everyone can dive here. We often use it for the second dive during the day or if someone haven’t dive for a long time, he/she can examine his/her knowledge. Diving is performed by the sheer cliff to a depth of 10 meters, which meanders by the coast and lead us through a few tunnels and passages. At the edge of cliff you enter 20 meters long tunnel, with a big cave at the end of it. The cave is 20 meters in diameter and 10-15 high. You can also get out the water and spend some time on the coast in the cave. Frequent visitors are bathers too because it can be entered by swimming. Diving time is usually more then one hour because of the small depth and air consumption.
