Source-reported site depths, not a recommended dive profile. “+” is open-ended. A qualification label does not qualify a diver for cave or wreck penetration.
Get to know the place
Rock, sand, boulders and seagrass create different small habitats. The source records wrasses, bream, cuttlefish and octopus among the species seen here; sightings are never guaranteed.
What to see
- A varied shallow bottom — Boulders, sandy patches and seagrass make different areas to examine.
- The quay wall — The reference notes marine life around the wall as well as along the reef.
- Small-animal habitats — Look among cracks for species recorded here, rather than expecting guaranteed encounters.
Features and marine-life sightings depend on the agreed route and conditions.

- Arrive at the Sirens coastal area in St Paul’s Bay.

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.
