Kornati Diving Center

Dive center on Dugi Otok — gateway to Kornati National Park. Steep walls, caves, pristine reefs. Technical diving with trimix. Apartment rentals available.

Kornati Diving Center is located in the small fishing village of Zaglav on Dugi Otok (Long Island), the gateway to the spectacular Kornati National Park — one of the most extraordinary diving destinations in the entire Mediterranean. The center organizes diving tours in both the Kornati archipelago and the adjacent Telašćica Nature Park.

The Kornati archipelago comprises 89 islands, islets, and reefs, creating an underwater playground of steep walls, cavernous formations, and drop-off reefs that plunge dramatically into the deep blue Adriatic. The park's protected status ensures pristine water quality and thriving marine ecosystems. Special diving permits for the national park are arranged through the center.

The center offers try scuba dives, diving courses for beginners and advanced divers through to professionals, and various specialty courses including extended range and technical diving. Trimix fills are available for qualified technical divers. Small group sizes ensure personalized attention and safe experiences. All diving equipment is available for rent.

Run by Matthias Pollok, the team speaks German, English, and Polish. The center also offers apartment rentals on Dugi Otok, making it convenient to combine accommodation with diving. Reaching the island requires a ferry from Zadar, adding to the sense of adventure and exclusivity that defines the Kornati diving experience.
