Get to know the place

The heritage authority documented guided snorkelling here during its August 2026 Spot the Anchor event. That past event supports the bay’s underwater interest; it does not establish a current tour, marked trail or access to an archaeological site. Ask a local operator about today’s surface options.

What to see

  • Sandy bay setting
  • Rocky bay margins
  • Maritime heritage context

Features and marine-life sightings depend on the agreed route and conditions.

THE WAY IN

Getting there & access

Armier Bay, Mellieħa

Bay-side approach; Armier and Little Armier are distinct beaches.

  1. Head to Armier Bay in northern Malta.
  2. Confirm that the meeting point is Armier rather than Little Armier.
  3. Agree a local surface route; the past heritage event is not a standing activity.
Directions to arrival area ↗

A named arrival area, not an exact water entry. Confirm the actual meeting point locally.

Plan for the day you go
