About this site

Golubinja Spilja is an underwater cave site located on the Brač shore, approximately 15 minutes by boat from Bol, behind Zlatni Rat. The site is defined by an underwater cave large enough to admit up to two divers at a time, surrounded by mounds of scattered boulders that create numerous hiding places for marine life. The maximum depth reaches 28 m, while individual rocks rise as shallow as 2 m depth.

The boulder fields and cave provide shelter for glavoče, sipe, the occasional ugor and škarpoč, with smaller fish and crabs occupying the holes and gaps between the rocks. The site also holds yellow coral, orange gorgones, and sponges among its marine growth.

Water temperature ranges from 6 to 10°C, and the site is diveable year-round. Given the cave environment and depth, this site is suited to advanced divers.
