Malta

FIND YOUR MALTESE MOMENT BY SCUBA-DIVING (NOT SUN-WORSHIPPING)

It is better known for its clement weather, soft sands and beach-break affordability, but Malta is also one of the Mediterranean’s best destinations for diving. Its calm waters, reefs and caves (not least the “Blue Hole” sinkhole in Swerja, a circular rock formation in the limestone – 10m wide and 5m across) and various wrecks (such as an RAF Bristol Blenheim bomber downed by Italian fire in 1941) provide myriad reasons for sub-aqua exploration.
