►    Marfa Point Caves (The Madonna)    ◄

Location: 

20m before the light house at Marfa Point

(where the Malta/Gozo ferry births)

Maximum depth: 18m (60ft)

Very easy access. Walk down a 10m concrete slope into a shallow 1m pool which is ideal for last minute preparations and buddy checks. Once you make your way out from the pool turn right and drop down to 5m. Move along with the wall to your right for 20m until you arrive to one of the most impressive drop offs you'll ever see. Drop down to 17m keeping the wall to your right. There in the corner you'll see a small cave with a statue of the Holy Mary which was placed here by the Amphibians Diving Club. Leave the cave and climb up to 12m on a ridge full with Posedonia. Always with the wall to your right you will immediately see a spectacular swim through. Enter and then make your way back around to your exit point keeping the wall to your left. There are at least five different amazing dive sites in this one location. These are all shore dives.
