About us

The beauties of Croatia’s coastline and her islands, islets and crags have often been the main reason why people have fallen in love with this country. In recent years, this has taken on another dimension – exploring its depths.

Those who have not yet ventured into Croatia’s undersea world have been fascinated by the treasures brought to the surface by divers who have documented their exploits through photographs, films and interesting tales relating to the infinite blue depths.

Project Croatia’s Undersea World was born out of man’s fascination for the sea, out of the idea of popularising and protecting the marine life and treasures that are found in Croatian waters, and, above all, out of the existing love for its unique undersea world.

Project Croatia’s Undersea World has evolved and matured with every new photograph, piece of footage and the material that has been gathered. Consequently, it includes the following:

Croatia’s Undersea World – A Monograph

The monograph ‘Croatia’s Undersea World’ is the product of years of demanding and exhaustive dives, exploration and filmed footage, as well as a series of exhibitions, both in Croatia and abroad, that have produced a book with comprehensive texts and attractive photographs. Its success is confirmation that the project has attained its initial aim, making it a recognisable name.







Telephone cards

Images captured in Croatia’s undersea world now adorn a series of telephone cards, which have received international prizes and acclaim:

  • The Croatia’s Undersea World series is the largest in the world
  • 1st prize for the most beautiful telephone card in the world, 2001, 2003 and 2004.
  • The first edition of transparent telephone cards in the world.
