  • The Blue Grotto is a natural rock formation which has been carved out of the rock by the relentless pounding of the sea.
    A number of caves can be reached by boat from Wied iz-Zurrieq, the main one being the Blue Grotto. This cave is quite deep. The sea in this area tends to be rough at times but the fishermen who ferry tourists and Maltese alike to visit the grottos are very experienced at handling the seawothy Maltese boats During the tourist season boats are constantly plying the waters between Wied iz-Zurrieq and the Blue Grotto.

  • One of the caves visited is a small cave with a sandy bottom and usually people are given the opportunity to have a refreshing swim in the turqoise, emerald and blue water of this cave.
    When exiting the Grotto you can see the deep blue Mediterranean in front of you and then the small island of Filfla appears straight ahead. Filfla is uninhabited except for a unique species of lizards that live there.
