Mana Wall

Mana sits on the seaward south-west face of an outer Kornati island, so it is one of the most open dive sites in the archipelago, fully exposed to the long Jugo (Sirocco) fetch from the SE and to open-Adriatic S and SW swell that breaks directly against the cliff. The landward NE and E sectors are blocked by the bulk of Mana Island and the inner archipelago. Cold, gusty Bura blowing offshore from the NE creates fierce surface wind but little wave on this seaward wall, though it can make the boat ride and surface interval rough.
