Croatia is a very popular diving destination for Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) countries. A traditional holiday destination for many decades, diving has always been one of the main attractions for summer guests. The coasts are clear and rich in marine life, and there is a good infrastructure.
On my dive trip in May 2009, I went to Kostrena, a small town near Rijeka. At first glance it seems not very attractive, as it is situated between the shipyards of Rijeka on the one side, and the...
