Rašip
Kornati National Park · Croatia
A rocky Adriatic wall that drops steeply into clear blue water off the islet of Rašip in Kornati National Park. Morays and conger eels fill the crevices, dentex and amberjack patrol the deeper blue, and spiny lobsters shelter under ledges. Visibility is often excellent, showing off the bare, sculpted limestone that defines the Kornati.
