Diving in Malta
The warm Mediterranean waters around Malta provide a great range of fauna, flora and fish. Malta’s diving is appropriate for beginners, advanced and technical divers. Its caves, reefs and wrecks are reached from either the shore or by boat. One of Malta’s most famous dive sites is the Blue Hole, situated on the west coast of Gozo. Situated in the north of Malta is Ċirkewwa. This is a shore dive which explores the reefs on shallow plateaus at 40 feet (12 meters). Wonderful arches and swim throughs take you to a Madonna statue. Beginners can experience wreck diving; off the coast of Comino lies the scuttled P-31 patrol boat.
