About this site
Cirkewwa Arch sits at the northwestern tip of Malta, near the ferry terminal used for crossings to Gozo. The site is part of the Cirkewwa area, a stretch of coastline known locally for its rocky shore entries into the Mediterranean. It's a beginner dive over a reef bottom, reaching a maximum depth of around 12 metres, making it an easy shore entry for less experienced divers. Octopus have been spotted here as well.
