Little Africa
Little Africa is the house reef of the Blue Planet centre, between the mainland and the Grebeni islet. Its outline is said to resemble the African continent, and within one dive you cross sand, rocky reef with small caves and vegetated bottom. Fragments of ancient amphorae lie among the rocks. Lobster, red scorpionfish, moray eel, octopus and passing tuna are mentioned.
