Dive-site story
Wreck Pajo is a sunken wooden fishing cutter resting upright on a sloping seabed off the southern coast of Čiovo Island. Covered in sponges, hydroids, and algae, the hull has opened up over time, providing easy access to inspect the interior compartments from the outside. Divers descend along a mooring line straight onto the structure, where schools of small fish routinely shelter.
