Snorkeling in Malta

Snorkeling in Malta

Malta's coastline hides some of the Mediterranean's best snorkeling. Drift over the reef at Blue Lagoon, explore rocky formations at Cirkewwa, and discover the caves around Comino. The water stays warm well into October, and visibility often reaches 30 metres or more.

Why visit?

Some of the clearest water in the Mediterranean, with visibility up to 30+ metres

Underwater caves and rock formations you won't find anywhere else

Warm water from May through October, no wetsuit needed

Marine life including octopus, barracuda, and colourful wrasse

Spots for every skill level, from shallow bays to deeper reef systems

Most sites are only reachable by boat, so they stay uncrowded

Combine snorkeling with swimming stops and a full day on the water

Blue Lagoon, Comino

Shallow turquoise water with a sandy bottom and reef edges full of small fish. Great for beginners and families with kids.

Santa Maria Caves, Comino

A network of sea caves on Comino's north side with overhangs and swim-throughs. The light coming through the rock creates an unreal blue glow.

Cirkewwa Marine Park

Deeper water with submerged wrecks and large rock structures at Malta's northern tip. You'll often spot cuttlefish and the occasional ray gliding past.

Paradise Bay

A sheltered bay near the Gozo ferry terminal with sandy patches and rocky edges. Great for spotting wrasse and damselfish in the shallows.
