Underwater profile

There’s a large plateua along the coast. It’s a belowed mating ground for toads and frogs in spring. The stone wall goes deep below sport diving limits. Large part of it is smooth like kitchen table - diving along is a very special experience. There’s a lot of construction equipment that was sank there after the highway was finished. The most spectacular is a huge conveyor.
