About Veli Cutin

Veli Cutin is one of two small islands off Croatia's east coast between Cres and Rab. The site is a remote wall dive with fissures, gorgonians, and very rich marine life, so it is usually run as a full-day boat excursion. Weak currents and exceptional visibility reward careful profile planning, especially for newer divers. Expect conger, scorpionfish, octopus, nudibranchs, wrasse, sea bream, and tuna moving through the wall system.
