Dive-site story
Located near Dwejra Point on Gozo's west coast, this dive begins in a landlocked saltwater lagoon before passing through a natural tunnel carved straight through towering limestone cliffs. As divers navigate the dark corridor, sunlight gradually illuminates the far end in vibrant cobalt blue hues. Emerging from the canyon into the open Mediterranean reveals an expansive vertical wall that drops sharply towards the seabed.
Transit through an open-ceiling natural cavern corridor opening directly into the open ocean
