Lady with a lovely name – Davina
On our way to the bottom we discovered that the vis is not very good and we had to navigate with the compass. After 3 minutes only I spotted the shade of the Lady! And O Miracle! The light came from the sky and the wreck was in it full length in front of us. Beautiful in the light with a lot of colours and marine live.

For the past 25 years the amateur and professional Diving Community of Malta, including the 60,000 diving tourists annually, have been writing and arguing in favor of declaring this gem of Biodiversity to be protected and declared a marine sanctuary.

SS MARGIT – a truly UK style dive in Malta
The wind was not playing fair and gusting around the island all week making the sea swell hitting many of the dive sites and render undiveable! The wreck of the SS MARGIT was our choice for Saturdays dive.Lying now peacefully in Kalkara Creek she is one of Malta’s many war time casualties a truly great dive for those who enjoy the lower end of the “Vis” spectrum in Malta.
