Anchor Wall is a dramatic Adriatic wall dive with a big anchor.
A local guide is recommended because the wall drops quickly and current can pick up.
Anchor Wall is a dramatic Hvar wall dive that starts from a small bay and follows the wall eastward to the anchor before continuing down toward deeper water. The route suits intermediate to advanced divers because the wall keeps changing from shallow to deep, and current can move the dive along the cliff edge. Expect lobsters, moray eels, jacks, sea bream and occasional dogfish around the rock face. It is a classic Adriatic wall for divers who want a clear, structured route rather than a flat reef.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A wall dive with an anchor landmark at about 20 m; the profile can be adjusted by continuing deeper or ascending along the wall.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the anchor and deeper wall are squarely in scuba territory.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel target; the main features sit too deep for casual surface viewing.
