Dive-site story
Set along the northern coast of Gozo, this sheltered inlet serves as a regular training ground and relaxing night dive site. The seabed transitions from smooth sand in the inner harbour to patches of Posidonia oceanica seagrass and rocky ledges along the bay flanks. Divers can follow the rocky walls outwards to spot macro critters and bottom-dwelling fishes camouflaged across the sand.
Excellent conditions for night dives when nocturnal predators emerge
Expansive seagrass meadows sheltering juvenile fish and camouflaged invertebrates
Easy shore access directly from the gently sloping beach or harbour slipway
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Calm seas and warm temperatures make late spring through autumn ideal, while winter brings cooler water and occasional swell.
