Gudja Cave is a boat-access cave dive in Gozo featuring a corridor-like passage that leads to a freshwater source at the back. Divers often notice a milky mixing layer where fresh and seawater meet, plus striking light effects along the walls. The route is an overhead environment with an exit via the cave opening, so careful buoyancy and lighting are key. This site is best planned for advanced divers and can be sensitive to northern winds.
