    Sikka Żonqor, off Comino, is a pleasant drift, especially when the conditions are right. You'll find a series of rocky ledges and crevices, home to plenty of Painted Combers and tiny Butterfly blennies peering out. We’ve spotted large Garrupa hiding in the bigger cracks too, and the gorgonian fans, while not massive, add a nice splash of color. It's a relaxed dive, good for photographers keen on macro subjects, though sometimes a Loggerhead turtle cruises by, just to keep you on your toes.
