Istria is the Croatian region with the highest number of wrecks. This is mainly due to the large number of ships sunk by mines during World Wars I and II. Indeed, just a short distance from the port of Pula, there were 5 minefields with a total of 1450 mines. 

Wreck diving in Croatia is a fascinating sport that allows you to combine your passion for scuba diving with the history of the country. Croatia is one of the best places in Europe to practice scuba diving. Its indented coastline with 1185 islands allows for an invaluable variety of underwater landscapes.
