Dive-site story
Reqqa Point marks the northernmost tip of Gozo, jutting straight out into open Mediterranean waters. Divers giant-stride off the flat limestone plateau directly above deep water, descending along sheer vertical walls, dramatic overhangs, and a massive underwater promontory. Pelagic hunters patrol the edge where currents sweep around the point, while deep crevasses and chimneys cut through the rock face.
Sheer drop-offs and vertical chimneys that cut deep into the cliffside
Offshore pinnacle offering panoramic blue-water views with hunting predators
Expansive rocky plateaus riddled with overhangs and hidden crevices
