While this is most certainly not an extensive list of the vast number of Dive Sites in Malta, it does contain the sites we’ve had the opportunity to visit and explore.

Cirkewa
A diver’s paradise – great visibility(during our visits), two spectacular wrecks, Mediterranean reefs and amazing depths ranging from safe areas for training and deco on a 4m – 6m inlet to 30m+ beyond the reef and around this site’s two wrecks – the P29 and Rozie. If you’ve dived in Malta, we’ll wager that you’ve been here and hope you enjoyed all that this amazing site has to offer as much as we did.

Um El Faroud
A Libyan Oil Tanker which following an accident was sunk as an artificial reef off the coast of Zurrieq, just West of the famed Blue Grotto. The wreck is reachable from shore via a short swim and with a brief stop off at “The Diving Helmet” either on the way there or back. As a small to medium sized tanker, this wreck is quick an experience and offers a wide range of depths down to approx 36m. The wreck itself is sat on a sandy bottom in two halves with a large chasm between the halves. Penetration opportunities are present for the properly-experienced, equipped and aware/guided.
