Double Arch Reef, Gozo

 

This dive site is found a short distance to the east of Xwieni Bay, on the north coast of Gozo.  It requires a 200 metre swim in a northerly direction, where a drop-off is reached. Nearby there are two distinctive holes through  a vertical rock face, which are known as Double Arch Reef.  The top of the rock is at a depth of 16 metres, whilst the rest goes down to a depth of 36 metres, with the lower arch being the larger of the two holes. On the way one encounters seagrass inhabited by cuttlefish, octopus and even the seahorse.  Often a large shoal of of small barracuda can be seen in this area.   

Maximum depth - 36  metres
