Atlantis Gozo ENG

Client: A-Dykk
Hotel: Atlantis Lodge
Route: Gozo, Malta
Take medieval cities, limestone cliffs, crystal clear water and food with an Italian touch. Add a southern European feeling of organized chaos and a dry and sunny climate and you have Malta in a nutshell! Sea, history, food and of course – fantastic diving. An excellent destination for the whole family. Non-­‐divers can spend the day at the beach, touring ancient temples or snorkeling along the coastline, while the divers in the family discover local wrecks, caverns or maybe even take a tour to the tuna farm. Gozo is the second largest Island of the Maltese archipelago, with a population of approximately 30,000. Though separated from mainland Malta by a 5 km stretch of sea, Gozo is distinctly different from Malta. The Island is a third the size of Malta, more rural and simple, its culture and way of life rooted in fishing, as well as in primitive pastoral and agricultural activity. Exuding a relaxed pace of life, Gozo is the ideal secluded safe haven and at just 25 minutes by ferry from Malta, the hop can easily be made for even the shortest stay. The diving around Malta is among the best in Europe, with visibility commonly reaching 25 -­‐ 30 m and water temperatures climbing up to 25º c. Thanks to WWII and the strategic position of the islands in the centre of the Mediterranean, there are plenty of wrecks to discover – bombers, fighter planes, submarines and destroyers to name a few. As if the wartime wrecks were not enough, new wrecks are continuously added. The Rozi and the Um el Faroud are only two examples of successfully scuttled wrecks creating attractive artificial reefs. Underwater caverns and formations form spectacular landscapes, and on top of this, a healthy marine life with nudibranchs, barracudas, jacks, breams and sometimes even John Dory’s and seahorses!
