IL MARA

Malta

/ 2

Il Mara is located half way between Fort Benghajsa and Ghar Hasan underneath the high cliffs.The site is not being dived at a lot because of the distance that needs to be covered by boat. It is still a very pretty and interesting area to explore, not lastly because of the many car wrecks that were pushed over the cliffs and which are now a habitat for lots of species. Because it is not a popular dive site chances of seeing big fish are good.

Particulars

Mooring is done at the huge rock that is jutting out of the cliffs. Below that is a ledge at 8 meters depth where the boat will anchor.
