About This Site
Lučice Cave — also known as the 'Dragon Eye' or 'Amberjack' cave — is widely regarded as the most popular cave/cavern dive on this stretch of the central Adriatic and one of the finest in Dalmatia. A wide vertical entrance opening at roughly 3 m just off the SW shore of Brač drops divers into a large, spacious main chamber; a tunnel runs out toward the deeper section near 39 m, and a narrow vertical shaft in the ceiling leads up to a trapped air pocket. Recreational divers enjoy the bright upper chamber and the surrounding reef, while the cone-shaped lower tunnels (tapering to roughly 47 m) are reserved for cave-certified divers carrying torches and reels. Reached by boat from Milna, the site combines easy cavern access with serious depth for those qualified to go further.

SW-opening site in the western arm of Lucice cove on the south coast of Brac, where the cave faces out down the Hvar Channel (orientationAngle 225). The widest exposure is the open channel mouth in the SW-WSW, with the SSW partly fronted by Hvar's western tip (Cape Pelegrin); this is also the line the SE Jugo (Sirocco) seas wrap into the cove, driving the heaviest surge at the shallow entrance. The bulk of Brac blocks the landward N-NE-E sectors, while Solta and the Razanj headland of Brac shadow the W-NW window and Hvar's northwest tip partly fronts the due-S line, so the cove is calm except when a southerly or jugo swell is running.
