7Dive centers offer dives on Xlendi Bay & Tunnel

It is an area with spectacular cliffs. Divers will have a chance to explore a beautiful underwater landscape when diving in the bay and then swim through a 45m/147ft long tunnel to see the stunning scenery outside of the bay. The landscape is so breathtaking that even weddings have been taking place here. The tunnel, located only 2m/7ft deep on the cliff side, runs through the headland with a maximum depth of 8m/26ft. There is a crack along the ceiling that together with the light from the exit creates an incredible atmosphere full of intense blue light and a perfect opportunity for photography.
