About Bacvica
Bacvica is a Kornati secca with a small rock rising just above the surface and a wall that splits into shallow and deep sections. The west side is the easier profile, while the south wall drops much deeper and gives the site its dramatic red-gorgonian look. A nearby wreck on the north side adds another layer of interest, so Bacvica works well as a varied boat dive with options for different experience levels.
