Get to know the place

Treat this as a specific cave feature rather than a separate shallow bay. Ask whether the plan is an outside view or an appropriately equipped overhead route.

What to see

  • Chimney-style cave feature
  • Southern reef rock
  • Delimara coastal setting

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

THE WAY IN

Getting there & access

Confirm the specific shore approach

The reference labels shore access “Medium”. Detailed directions for the precise entry are not verified in this guide. Use the individual site reference and confirm the approach and return with the dive centre.

Map reference: 35.8183° N, 14.5629° E · Approx.

Plan for the day you go

Check the current regional wind and sea outlook, then agree the entry, exit, route and required experience with a local operator. Regional forecasts do not measure cave surge, currents, visibility, water quality or closures.

Cave and overhead access requires an on-site assessment and appropriate training and equipment.
