DAHLET QORROT
Malta
Daħlet Qorrot is a small inlet nestled between the northern cliffs of Gozo not far from in-Nadur. There is a little pebbly beach to swim off, as well as a quayside and rocks on either side of the bay taking you straight into clear deep water. This is an easy dive suitable for beginners. The site features extensive beds of neptune grass amongst small sandy patches.
Particulars
The cove is used by a small number of fisherman who have turned some caves at the base of the cliffs into boat houses and storage for their fishing gear. The fishermen can often be seen mending their nets or repairing their colourful boats to keep them seaworthy.
Warnings
Boats at the surface.
