Babino
Babino: boat-access wall dive south of Rabac.
Boat dive with a shallow plateau, a long wall and a sandy canyon section; current matters more than entry difficulty.
About Babino
Babino is a south-of-Rabac boat dive with a shallow start that drops onto a long, overgrown wall. The route runs east along the edge, then bends north into the wall, with a sandy canyon section adding variety on the return. Expect clear Adriatic water, a noticeable current, and rich wall life such as lobsters, conger eels, nudibranchs and sea fans.
