Two ships. One of them is a ship "Adria” sinked in the beginning of XIX century. It's on a depth of 14-18m. The second one is a ship "Forvest” on a depth of 18-28 meters.
On the depth of only 2-3m you can see the fragments of an old town from Roman age!
To dive in Montenegro you need to have an international diving card and a permission for Montenegro. You can get the permission in the port Bar (it's valid for the whole year and it costs 15 €), you need a diver from Montenegro as a guide. Ofcource you cannot bring anything you find.

Tara River Escursions
The Tara River Gorge, also known as Tara Canyon, is the route of the Tara River, the deepest canyon in Montenegro and Europe, at 78 kilometers in length and 1,300 meters at its deepest. The canyon is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is a part of Durmitor national park. The Tara River is fed by the confluence of the Ospanica and Verusa rivers in the Dinaric Alps of Montenegro. The river provides the largest European supply of drinking water.
Rafting on the Tara River is a popular recreation activity in Montenegro. One popular rafting route follows an 18 kilometer course starting from Brstnovica, that takes approximately three hours. Other rafting routes allows enthusiasts to follow much of the dramatic Tara River Gorge - Europe's deepest gorge - passing near waterfalls, under bridges, near old Roman roads, and of course, through "white water" rougher waters for those that enjoy the most exciting of rafting trips.
In September 2006, a protocol for cooperation between the Slovenian company "Petrol" and Montenegrin company "Montenegro-bonus" was signed, and the building of an electric plant with initial power of 40 or 60 megawatts is planned for construction in the gorge.
The Tara River is not to be confused with Tara Mountain and Tara National Park, which are situated in southern Serbia.
