Why dive here
Ta' Ċenċ Dive Site is a wall dive where divers can encounter dolphins, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and sea turtles. Water ranges 16-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Dropping into Ta' Ċenċ, you're looking at a reef that's pretty typical of Gozo's southern coast. We've often found slipper lobsters tucked into the overhangs here, and the ornate wrasse put on a good show darting between the rocks. It’s a nice steady dive, with plenty of painted combers and damsel fish. While we haven't logged any record-breaking encounters, it's a solid choice for a relaxed afternoon. It’s a good spot if you’re after a quiet dive and keen to spot some local Mediterranean marine life without any fuss.
