Samograd is a steep wall dive in Kornati National Park.
Samograd is a steep Kornati wall dive with red gorgonians, cave features near the lower section, and a profile that keeps the dive interesting from the wall face into the plateau. It rewards experienced divers who are comfortable with depth, clear water, and a route that shifts from bright coral growth to darker wall features and back out over fishy open water.
