Primorsko Goranska županija
Primorsko-goranska županija (Primor‑Goranska County) is a coastal region in Croatia that borders the Adriatic Sea. Diving here centers on the northern Adriatic coast and its offshore islets, with access from towns such as Cres, Krk, and Rab. The area features shallow to moderate depth sites around rocky shores and coastal reefs, with generally clear, warm-season water and typical visibility suitable for recreational diving. Expect pelagic activity seasonally, abundant small reef fishes, and macro life around rocky bottoms; boat access from the coastal towns supports trips to nearby islets and potential deeper dives. The region is best known for its proximity to the Cres-Lošinj archipelago and the Krk Island group, offering straightforward shore entries and short boat runs for divers exploring sheltered bays and wall sections.
