Scuba Diving in Comino Caves

This dive site is one of the most popular sites of the Maltese islands. It could be enjoyed by qualified divers of all levels, even those qualified to dive only to a depth of 12 metres. It consists of a system of interconnecting caverns that extend over 30 metres through the headland with the opportunity to surface in an open cave. It is extremely scenic and the photo opportunities are endless. 

There are at least 10 caves that are known of today which divers can explore. Each has it’s own distinct features and beauty and no cave is the same. There are some which offer swim throughs, underwater tunnels and others have beautiful blue waters through their entrances. These caves are not only ideal for divers, but also for snorkelers since most of the caves are quite shallow and also most are half out of the water, so snorkelers can come up for air. For the underwater photographers this is a playground not to be missed. These caves are also very abundant with marine life like damselfish, moray eels, spiny lobsters, crabs, octopus, nudibranch, and mullets.
