After a descent at the anchor rope you will find two large rocks at depths ranging from 18m to 33m. These reefs are home to sea hares, octopi, and large schools of fish, as well as many other marine animals. This dive site lies north of Tucepi in the open sea.
In 1956 a Greek cargo ship smuggled cigarettes into Croatia. It was caught and confiscated in Ploce by the Yugoslavian Coast Guard. The crew was arrested. After a flight attempt, the ship was sunk by the Coast Guard about 1 sea-mile away from Makarska. All sailors survived and were arrested. The bottom of the wreck lies upright on its keel at a depth of 60m. Due to the depth, the wreck is ideal for technical dives, such as Rebreather or Entry-Level-Trimix. The best time to dive to the wreck is from April to May and from September to October.
Nugal is a long stretched beach north of Tucepi, including three different dive spots. All three are characterized by drop-offs with depths ranging from 12m to 40m with reefs full of marine life. Large schools of small fish, octopi and sometimes even sea-horses can be found here.
