Fessej Rock

Dive site in
Improve

Fessej Rock is a pinnacle on the south side of the island of Gozo, Malta. The rock rises 15 meters from the surface, but its base is found 60 meters (197 feet) below the surface.

Along the way, numerous crevices and colorful overhangs where fish and octopus hide can be found. The deeper parts of Fessej Rock are home to breams, barracudas, tunas, and groupers, as well as plenty of small fish. The east side of the dive site offers a steep drop-off to about 50 meters (164 feet).

Fessej Rock is accessible only by boat. Since it is exposed to current and surge, but also because of its depth, divers are required to hold an advanced certification.

The large rock can be circumnavigated, with large boulders creating swim throughs. Lots of fish life and a chance to see Baracuda or Jacks hunting the smaller fish.
