Pločica is a Vis boat dive with a north-side buoy, shallow rock formations, and a deeper gorgonian slope for intermediate divers.
About Plocica
Pločica is a boat-access reef off the northwestern edge of Vis, where a north-side buoy marks the usual mooring and the site opens onto a shallow platform, rock formations, and a deeper gorgonian garden. The main draw is the fan-coral slope with moray eels, crawfish, and occasional open-water life, so it suits divers who are comfortable planning around current and depth changes.

Scuba Diving
The shallow north side gives way to deeper fan-coral growth, with the main garden building from the low twenties into the thirties.
Freediving
Freediving is not ideal because the main garden sits deep and the current can be significant.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling only works around the shallow rocks; the gorgonian garden is a scuba target.
