HMS Maori
HMS Maori is probably Malta’s most famous wreck, although she is far from the best dive in Malta, a visit to this ship is a significant brush with the island’s history.
There are plenty of different species of fish and other creatures amongst the wreckage, there is also a lot of wreckage to inspect and enjoy!
Marine life: Scorpion fish, Lobster, Sea Lemons, Cardinal fish, White tip sea Urchin, Seabreams and Octopus.
Carolita Barge
On the 21st April 1942, the barge was moored at the submarine depot on Manoel Island. She was possibly mistaken for a submarine in the dark when a torpedo struck her in the stern and she sank immediately.
The stern section is completely broken away and leans over on its starboard side. Marine life that can be encountered on this dive are Octopus, small Groupers, Damselfish and Stone fish.
Blenheim Bomber
This is a magnificent boat dive, and could rate as a top ten dive site!
The engines are exposed enabling us to inspect many parts that make up the 920hp Bristol Mercury Engines. The control lever is directly in front of the pilots seat. Marine life that may be seen on this dive are red crabs, hermit crabs and scorpion fish.
Wied Iz-Zurrieq / Blue Grotto
This is a very popular dive which starts with an entry into the water from a small, narrow quay.
Leaving the cave we progress along the wall, there are so many fish – painted combers, damsel fish, rainbow and Turkish wrasse, saupe, goatfish, scorpion fish and even a sea horse or two!
Ghar Lapsi
Here we find a large slipway leading down to the entry point at the end of the concrete path, a ladder provided for swimmers marks the entrance to a shallow cave on this dive, the cave entrance is narrow but once inside its is wide and flat and there are a number of different entrances and exits.
The sun reflects through these entrances and exits creating marvelous underwater images.
The 2 Tugs (St Michael and Ten)
There are two wrecks of tug boats at Zonqor Point: St Michael and the Ten Wreck.
Migra Ferha
Not the easiest of sites to get to but well worth the effort when you enter the crystal clear waters.
Anchor Bay
A large cave is located here the floor of the cave being 10 Meters deep, and we can easily surface and marvel at the magnificent dome shape ceiling. A little further on is a large window, which general marks the point to turn back. Parrot fish and Moray eels are also common here.
Gozo Dives
Xlendi Bay
This is quiet a shallow dive and good for those new to cave diving. The maximum depth is 12 meters found at the bottom of the bay on the crossing, full of large areas of sea grass and sandy bottoms consisting of many different species of fish – especially juveniles.
The Blue Hole
The blue hole is a spectacular and memorable dive. We enter what appears to be nothing more than a rock pool that is no more than 10 meters across. As we descend we exit the pool through a great archway at 7 meters, then turning left above some huge boulders we may see moray eel.
Billingshurst Cave
The top of the cave entrance is just above the surface and the bottom is at 27 meters. A long tunnel called the Railway tunnel on its account of its size it leads to a further cave where we can surface.
Comino Land and Karwela
The sinking of the Karwela and the Comino Land was a huge success, if not a very timely event.
