About Stijena

Stijena is a sheltered Istrian bay dive with a sandy slope, scattered boulders, and a wall section that takes over below the shallows. The shallow area holds the remains of an unknown wreck, while the rockier edge gives fish places to hide. It works best as an unhurried terrain dive for intermediate divers who like a gradual start, easy landmarking, and a slow transition into the wall.
