Why dive here
With 59+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, sea turtles and cuttlefish - Dragonara cave offers some of Malta Island's richest cave diving. Water sits around 17°C.
Dragonara Cave offers a straightforward cavern dive, making it a good option for those new to overhead environments. You’ll find some interesting light play filtering through the entrance, illuminating the rocky interior. It’s a relatively shallow dive, suitable for divers comfortable with basic cave navigation and looking for a relaxed exploration rather than dramatic coral.
Safety Notes
Overhead environment - never enter without proper cave/cavern training, redundant equipment, and a guideline.
