About Fungus Rock
Fungus Rock is a small offshore limestone islet at the entrance to Dwejra Bay and a boat dive for those who want a dramatic Gozo landmark. Divers typically circle the rock and explore the rugged boulders and relief around its base in open water. Planning should account for an advanced profile and the exposed setting, where sea state can affect comfort and access. The islet is protected, and landing on it is not permitted without special permission.
