About Крокодила Krokodila
Krokodila is a sheltered Black Sea dive park near Primorsko, known for its underwater chapel and mermaid sculpture set over a gently shelving bottom. The route is simple rather than dramatic: easy shallows, then a gradual drop into a compact scenic area that rewards buoyancy control and relaxed exploration. It works best on calm-weather guided trips, when the bay stays mellow and the park can be enjoyed without fighting the sea.
