The Adriatic waters around Pula host a diverse array of marine life. You will encounter various fish species including dentex, sea bream (Sparidae), and salema porgy (Sarpa salpa), alongside smaller damselfish (Pomacentridae) that frequent the reef structures.
In the rocky crevices and near the seabed, look out for larger predators and scavengers such as scorpionfish, eels (Anguilliformes), and various species of catsharks. The presence of lobster (Homaridae) and crabs (Brachyura) is also common throughout the local habitats.
The seafloor is a rich environment for macro life and invertebrates, featuring sponges (Porifera), bryozoans, cnidarians, and soft corals. You may also spot sea pens and sea catfish navigating the different depths of the reef and sandy patches.
