Dive-site story
Located directly off the shoreline of St. Julian's, this sheltered house reef features rocky plateaus stepping down into scattered boulders and patches of coarse sand interspersed with Posidonia seagrass meadows. Dive centers based nearby frequently use the site for introductory dives, skills refreshers, and relaxed night excursions due to its gentle topography and straightforward navigation.
Gradual limestone reefs with easy navigation following the contours of the bay
Sheltered sandy patches suitable for buoyancy practice and training exercises
Night dive opportunities when nocturnal predators emerge over the rocky ledges
