Sheltered Croatian rock reef with training dives and macro life.
Space Reef is a shallow Croatian reef of large rocks on a sandy bottom, with small canyon-like cuts and a flat layout that suits relaxed training dives. It is usually reached by boat from the local dive area and often becomes the fallback choice when bura makes exposed sites less comfortable. The terrain is simple, but the macro life rewards a slow look at the bottom.
