About Dome

Dome in Kornati National Park is a boat dive centered on a large half-cave with a dramatic drop-off, rock formations, and the Max Hahn memorial as a landmark. The site suits confident scuba divers who want warm Adriatic water, clear visibility, and a long look at the reef edge rather than a shallow swim. Expect a ceiling coated in bright sponges and soft corals, red gorgonians on the outside edge, and groupers and Mediterranean anthias in the water column.

Scuba Diving

Best for confident scuba divers who want a half-cave, gorgonian edge, and deep reef structure.

The upper reef edge is not really a snorkel site; the best experience is below the surface.
