Which dive site will we visit?

Sikka Il-Bajda, also known as White Reef or Hoofer’s Reef, is a dive site located off the coast of Malta. This site is especially suitable for experienced divers due to its depth and the diving conditions. The average depth of the site is about 20 meters, with a maximum depth extending to 42 meters.

L’Ahrax Point, situated at the northernmost point of Malta’s main island, offers a diverse and captivating diving experience. This site is renowned for its unique combination of a cave, reef, and wall, making it an intriguing spot for divers of all levels.

The dive site features a variety of underwater landscapes, including a large cavern with a collapsed roof, creating a dramatic circular opening. This cavern, known as the Inland Sea dive site within L’Ahrax Point, rises about 10 meters above the sea surface, offering a unique view from below. Additionally, divers can explore a reef that extends up to 30 meters, a tunnel leading into an “internal sea,” and the enchanting Dragonara Cave, which leaves a lasting impression with its bright corals and red sponges.

As the dives are done quite far from shore, there is a possibility that the diver will start surfacing before returning to the boat. For safety reasons, we insist that each diver has a personal safety buoy (SMB) and recommend a marine or pneumatic whistle.
