One of the dive sites we run here in Malta — here's the story behind it, the depth and access, and what it takes to dive it properly.
Anchor Bay, tucked beneath Popeye Village on Malta's north-west coast, is a sheltered, scenic spot with a rocky reef and the old admiralty anchor that gives the bay its name. Calm and shallow, it's a pleasant, easy dive — good for training and for an unhurried explore, with the bonus of one of Malta's prettiest stretches of coastline above the surface.
Good news: this site is well within reach of recreational and advanced recreational divers — no technical certification needed to enjoy it. Come and dive it with me, and when you’re ready to push deeper into Malta’s technical sites, here’s where to head next:
Already certified and just want to dive it? Come and explore it with me on open circuit or CCR — one relaxed dive a day, no rushing, as long in the water as you like.
Want to dive Anchor Bay? Tell me your certification level and your dates, and I'll plan it with you. No pressure, no hard sell — just a good dive.
