    CharacterReef dive

    Qbajjar Reef often gets overlooked for some of Gozo's flashier sites, but we think it’s a solid pick for a relaxed dive. Drop down and you’ll find a mix of rocky reef and healthy patches of slender seagrass, a good hunting ground for wrasse and painted combers. Keep an eye out for the subtle beauty of sunset cup corals or a grumpy dusky grouper eyeing you from a crevice. It’s a comfortable dive, rarely deep, making it a good choice for newer divers or when you just want to unwind with a longer bottom time.
