Diving Center Franʼs Reef opened 2011, but its tradition reaches 1998, when the construction entrepreneur and a diving enthusiast from Vienna Branko Zakic opened AMDC Diving (Adriatic Master Dive Center) and so starts a diving tradition in Orsera Camping (former ACC Tourist). Even today there are lots of guests who come to our diving center for over 10 years and every year we succeed to impress new people with our friendly and relaxed atmosphere and keep our club growing
