Dive-site story
Located beneath the dramatic sheer limestone precipices of Gozo's southern coast, this site features a steep vertical wall that plunges into deep water over scattered boulder fields. Divers drift along the cliff face exploring deep crevices, overhangs, and swim-throughs formed by fallen rocks. The exposed location brings pelagic predators close to the wall, offering striking underwater vistas against the deep blue open sea.
Monumental vertical wall topography dropping straight to a boulder-strewn seabed
Schools of pelagic hunters cruising in open water off the cliff edge
Extensive undercut overhangs covered in colorful sponges and bryozoans
