About Double Arch
Double Arch is a Gozo dive site defined by two natural arches and nearby small caves, making it a geology-forward underwater landscape. The main route centers on swimming through and around the twin arches with optional looks into the small caverns. Shallower reef sections add color and structure, while the deeper contours offer scope for a longer, multilevel profile. Because of overhead features and depth potential, this is best planned as an advanced dive with solid buoyancy and gas awareness.
