About this site
This site lies off Marsaxlokk, a fishing harbour town on the southeastern coast of Malta, in waters known for wartime aircraft and shipping wrecks from the Mediterranean theatre. The name points to a de Havilland Mosquito fighter bomber resting in the bay's approaches, sitting at a maximum depth of around 42 metres and rated a technical dive. Divers have also reported strong currents at the site.
