A place you should visit in Malta definitely is Blue Grotto. It usually gets mistaken with the Blue Lagoon in Comino. This popular site attracts thousands of visitors per year, with tourists flocking here to see the amazing grotto via local boat trips. It’s also an extremely popular diving and snorkeling spot, with very clear, clean and deep waters. This complex comprises of a massive (and very impressive) main arch, which is approximately 30m in height, as well as a system of 6 other caves, amongst which you will find the Honeymoon Cave, the Cat’s Cave and the beautiful Reflection Cave. The deep, open waters of the area are what in fact created the complex. Throughout the centuries, the persistent crashing of the waves against the hard cliff face resulted in the formation of the huge, arch like grotto, as well as several adjoining caves and nearby rock formations.

Even though the caves are a wonder within themselves, the true beauty of the place really shines through on clear, sunny days. This is when the magic happens; the blue sky reflects off the white sandy seabed under the caves, resulting in vibrant azure and cobalt coloured waters.

So if you ask me this is a perfect spot to explore Malta and feel why Malta is a pearl of the Mediterranean sea
