About this site
Lighter X127 rests off Sliema on Malta's coast, near the harbours around Valletta that are known for their scuttled artificial wreck sites. This one lies on a wreck bottom to a maximum depth of around 22 metres and is rated a beginner dive. Visibility tends to be poor here, and divers have reported silt along with the low visibility as things to watch for. Nudibranchs and octopus have also been spotted on the wreck.
