Malta

Marsalforn

Marsalforn is a small dive-focused town on Gozo, part of Malta, facing the Eastern Basin of the Mediterranean Sea. It’s mainly a gateway for boat trips and shore diving along the rocky coast, with dives planned around currents and local swell. Conditions are typically best when the sea is calm and visibility is decent, but you’ll want to check the day’s conditions and the exact site access with the local dive center. The area is known for underwater walls, caverns, and varied reef habitats, so you can find options ranging from relaxed beginner profiles to more advanced dives where depth and movement matter. Even if you’re based in town, most divers build a short itinerary of repeated dives on nearby sites.
