GHAR LAPSI FINGER REEF & CRIB
Malta
Ghar Lapsi Finger Reef & Crib is a beautiful dive site from a small bay with several reef and cave structures. The calm, shallow water makes this an excellent dive site for beginners. More experienced divers can explore the caves in the clear blue-green waters. The small cave system has several entry and exit spots. The inside is equally beautiful due to lighting conditions, rock formations and marine life. Crib refers to a nativity crib made from steel plate that can be found in one of the caves at 22 meters depth after a 15 minute swim.
Particulars
Enter the water by using the stairs or via the boat ramp. There are several passages in the cave system where you can ascend.
Warnings
