The three Islands that make up the Maltese Archipelago - Malta, the largest; Gozo, the mythical isle of Calypso; and tiny Comino, famous for its Blue Lagoon - form a very special diving site at the heart of the Mediterranean. The Islands invite you to discover their natural harbours, bays, sheltered creeks, cliffs, reefs and wrecks. The waters here are some of the most limpid and clear in the world. Visibility is excellent down to around 30 metres. So Malta is a dream destination for underwater photography. Marine life flourishes in a vibrant display of colours. With dive sites just a stone's throw away from each other, you will be able to explore a variety of underwater worlds. We've listed some 36 of the best known dive sites ranging from labyrinthine caves to reefs and wartime wrecks. For more excitement, try a night dive or dive deeper to 30 or 40 metres. Colours appear almost fluorescent by torchlight. For the more experienced, these dives offer a unique adventure.Irqieqa Point, Comino St. Marija Caves, Comino Reqqa Point, Ghasri, Gozo Dwejra Point, Dwejra, Gozo Mgarr ix-Xini, Gozo Ahrax Point, Dragonara Cave, Mellieha Anchor Bay, Mellieha Cirkewwa Ghar Lapsi, Qrendi Merkanti Reef, St. Julians Qawra Point Wied iz-Zurrieq, Qrendi Delimara Point, Marsaxlokk, HMS Maori, Valletta The Tugboat Rozi, Cirkewwa Marfa Point, Marfa St. Paul's Islands Xlendi Reef, Gozo Xlendi Cave, Gozo Fungus Rock, Gozo Crocodile Rock and Coral Cave, Gozo The Blue Hole and The Chimney, Gozo San Dimitri Point, Gozo Ghasri Valley, Gozo Double Arch Reef, Gozo Xatt l-Ahmar, Gozo Fessej Rock, Gozo Il-Kantra, Gozo Cominotto Reef, Gozo Lantern Point, Comino Billinghurst Cave, Gozo Blenheim Bomber, Marsaxlokk Carolita Barge, Marsamxett Harbour Um El Faroud, Zurrieq Imperial Eagle, St. Paul's Bay MV Odile, Kalkara Creek
