South Solta cave-and-cliff dive with a guided overhead section.
South Solta cave-and-cliff dive with a guided overhead section.
A local guide is the right choice because the site mixes a cave opening, a cliff, and a deeper wall line.
Marie Grota is a guided south-Solta cave-and-cliff dive with a vertical tunnel, a ridge exit, and a deeper wall. It suits trained scuba divers who are comfortable with an overhead feature and careful buoyancy.
Conservative baseline from public research. No community dives logged yet.
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
5m - 40m
Depth Note
The operator lists the site at 5-40m; the cave entrance is described at 6m and the tunnel descends to about 25m before the wall continues deeper.
Best Season
Late spring through early autumn, when calmer Adriatic weather usually makes the cave mouth easier to manage.
Typical Conditions
A boat-access cave-and-cliff dive with clear rock relief, an overhead section, and a deeper wall that becomes more serious as you move past the cave mouth.
Site conditions, restrictions, and access requirements.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Keep strict buoyancy in the tunnel, stay within the guide's overhead limits, and abort the cave section if the sea state looks unsettled.
Access Restrictions
Treat Marie Grota as a guided overhead dive; do not enter the cave section without the right training and a local operator who knows the site.
Legal Notes
Follow local operator briefings and stay within certification boundaries for overhead diving.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A rewarding guided scuba dive with a memorable overhead section and a wall that keeps the dive interesting after the cave exit.
Freediving
Not a freedive target; the overhead section and deeper exit call for scuba training and controlled gas planning.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel site; the main feature sits below the surface and the useful line continues into overhead water.
