Which dive site will we visit?
The dive site of the Statue of Christ, also known as Kristu tal-Bahhara (Christ of the Sailors), is a mesmerizing underwater attraction located off Qawra Point in north-eastern Malta. This 3-meter tall statue depicts Jesus Christ with arms outstretched, symbolically protecting sailors. It stands on white sand amidst a natural amphitheater of rock and is positioned at a depth of about 35 meters.
St. Paul’s Island is a small island off the coast of Malta known for its historical and religious significance. According to Christian tradition, this is where the Apostle Paul was shipwrecked around 60 A.D. when he sailed to Rome as a prisoner.
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.
About Buddy Boat:
Our boat is originally designed to be safe for active sports: Scuba diving and freediving but retaining the comfort of a private yacht: lounge area, kitchen, shower/toilet all on board.
We’ll be happy to see photographers, biologists, archeologists and marine researchers on board.
