Dive-site story
Set against the southern cliffs of Koločep Island near Dubrovnik, Bezdan pairs an expansive cavern system with a steep outer drop-off. The route starts along an undercut wall before heading into the cavern entrance. Divers traverse an open chamber that ascends into an interior air siphon beneath the limestone cliffs, then exit onto a vertical wall encrusted with sponges and yellow anemones above deep rocky slopes.
