“The sea is our life and we treat it with respect! With this in mind, we founded the Zlatna luka diving center in order to show our clients the hidden locations of the underwater world of the Adriatic Sea. That world is available to everyone and is waiting for you! Come and dive with us into the depths of the Adriatic Sea!”
We are a 5-star PADI dive center located in the middle of the Adriatic coast, which is its most indented part. This is the area where there are approximately ten big islands and hundreds of islets, featuring dramatic rocky cliffs above the sea and below. Underwater walls reach depths of more than 60 meters, and they are full of caves and rich biodiversity that makes this part of the Adriatic a must for every diver.
Among our locations are the two pearls of the Adriatic: The National Park – Kornati and the Park of Nature – Telascica.
Two diving instructors and two divemasters are there to make sure you have the time of your life.
We have a large, comfortable boat to transport you to our locations, top-notch equipment, and tanks always filled to at least 220 bars. There is free parking in front of the dive center, complimentary coffee upon your arrival, and everything you need to enjoy the trip worry-free.
But most importantly, we have a passion for diving that we want to share with you!

What can you get with our diving trips?
Our dives are usually on underwater walls. They are a home to many kinds of fish, corals, gorgonians, and sponges. Stars of our dive spots are, among other things, seahorses, octopuses, moray eels, scorpionfish, groupers, and myriad of different nudibranchs!
Our boat is equipped with a powerful sonar system, and we are always in search of new dive spots!
WALLS
You will have a chance to see underwater walls swooping down to depths of 60 meters! Picture forests of gorgonians, numerous holes hiding morays and lobsters, while schools of damselfish are swimming all around. Dramatic drop-offs are just next to the coast, and these dives are suitable for all categories of divers.
UNDERWATER REEFS
Because of their position, reefs are full of underwater life and various fish. The visibility is great. These diving spots are for all diving categories.
RED CORALS
One of our most beautiful diving spots is the place where big species of red corals grow. This masterpiece of nature will leave no diver indifferent. Their intense red color and ramified shape are a unique ornament to the underwater walls, reefs, rocks and caves. The spot is suitable for advanced divers.
SOFT CORALS
You can see yellow and red soft corals (gorgonians) in all our diving spots. Fan-shaped and abundant, they form beautiful otherworldly forests underwater. They can be found at 18-meter depth and beyond.
CAVES
Many cracks are formed in the reefs due to the structure of the soil, and this is the main reason for the existence of so many smaller and bigger underwater caves. Caves in Mali and Veli Garmenjak will leave you speechless. Diving in these caves is for all diving categories.
UNDERWATER CHURCH
Another incredible location we dive at is the island Karantun, where our great late captain has submerged a little chapel at 14 meter depth. A decorated war hero, Vinko Šimunić Bubanj was the captain of our boat for over 20 years. He was one of the first instructors in Croatia with vast diving experience that spanned over 50 years! At this location we can often see seahorses, octopuses, scorpionfish and other animals.
