NORTH DALMATIANS

Wreck Michelle Shipwreck

Distance from last location: 11 nm

Approximately one nautical mile from the Veli Rat lighthouse to the north lies the wreck of the Italian cargo ship Michelle. It is one of the most accessible underwater locations in Croatia located at depths of 3 - 5 meters, so it is attractive even for less experienced divers. For an unforgettable experience, you only need a mask, a snorkel and a pair of flippers or sea shoes.

The ship was intentionally run aground in 1983, legend has it, to pay out the insurance money. The ship stood above the sea for a long time, but due to the aggressive action of the sea, wind and waves, over time it lost most of its superstructure and plating. On another smaller part of the ship, it is possible to stand and walk, but be sure to be careful because of the countless metal parts as sharp as a knife.

Veli Rat

Breath in the serene beauty of the Punta Bjanca lighthouse standing tall amid verdant pine forests and pristine bays as your yacht glides towards the tranquil shores of Veli Rat.

For an unforgettable experience, dive into the shallow sea surrounding Punta Bjanca and indulge in some spearfishing, or simply enjoy the stunning views of the rocky coastline, with the Lagnii rocks encircling the west side and a sunken ship nearby adding a touch of mystery and intrigue.
