    Għar Lapsi’s Left Reef offers a gentle dive, making it a good spot for a relaxed afternoon. You’ll find healthy patches of Mediterranean tapeweed swaying, providing cover for painted combers and ornate wrasse. Look closely among the rocks for butterfly blennies peeking out. While you might not see the big pelagics here, it’s a pleasant dive for those wanting to explore the shallower reef and observe the smaller, common Mediterranean species. The entry can be a bit rocky, so take your time getting in.
