Diving Hotels & Diving Resorts In Malta
Malta is a country in Southern Europe known for its long, unique history, great weather and, most recently, very rewarding tourist sites. However, the three small islands that make up Malta are located in the Mediterranean Sea in an area that is capable of sustaining another reason for people to flock to this holiday destination: there can be spent some of the best scuba diving vacations in Europe. Clear, calm, unpolluted waters make diving in Malta safe, easy and unforgettable. Moreover, scuba diving can occur any time during the year, but the best time to dive is from April to September. There are many great dive sites around the main islands with much to offer in terms of things to see, both natural and human-made. "HMS Maori" is a wreck dive located at St. Elmo's Bay in a place where divers have easy access to the remains all the way through. "Ahrax Point" off the coast of Marfa Ridge is home to huge Posedonia meadows where more than three-hundred species of fish go to spawn. "Marfa Point Caves" is the site of an impressive drop-off to a small cave where a statue of the Virgin Mary is on display and there is a spectacular swim-through. "Cominotto Rock and Reef" allows divers to drop 120 feet (36.5 meters) down a vertical wall to a group of caverns and boulders covered with sponges and coral. Other popular dive sites in Malta include "Lantern Point", "Blue Hole", "Regga Point", "St. Maria Caves", and "Dwejra".
For beginner and advanced divers alike, there are opportunities to participate in guided dive trips to various locations on the islands. "Dive Deep Blue" has a number of different boats suitable for various types of dives so that visitors can be guaranteed a safe and enjoyable dive every time. They also offer a number of courses to divers of all skill levels.
