Premuda

Pag is a small island immediately north of Zadar that is connected to the mainland by a causeway. However, it is more interested in diving, and the most popular place is Premuda, which is the name of an underwater 'cathedral.' Of course, it's not a cathedral, but rather a network of interconnected caves with an incredible underwater light show. There are spider crabs, octopus, amberjack, and corals to be found, and there is also a tunnel leading to the main cave to explore for the more brave divers.

This dive will appeal to divers of all levels, with a tunnel (16m-50m/52-164ft) and the remains of the WWI Austro-Hungarian battleship SMS Szent István (40–60m/131–199ft depth) of particular interest to advanced divers. Divers can see octopi, crabs, and rainbow wrasses on the plateau, and mullets, white two-banded, sheepshead breams, and other species live on the sandy seabed. Corals, sponges, and polychaetes abound in all of the caverns.
