Wied il-Ghasri
Gozo inlet with steep shore access, clear water, and an overhead cave route.
Cliff-cut north-coast Gozo inlet with steep steps, limited parking, a tiny pebbly bay, clear-water shore diving, and an overhead cave route.
About Wied il-Ghasri
Wied il-Ghasri is a narrow north-coast Gozo gorge that drops to a tiny pebbly bay through steep cliff steps and a tight valley. Divers use the shore entry for the shallow inlet and outside wall, while the cave route is a more committed overhead line that needs calm sea and good planning. Expect limited parking, slippery footing when wet, and the best conditions on settled days when the inlet stays clear and the cliffs block most of the wind.

Wied il-Ghasri Planning Details
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
0m - 18m
Depth Note
The inlet starts at the waterline, the outside wall reaches about 18 m, and the cave route runs deeper as a separate overhead line.
Best Season
Spring and autumn for the easiest all-around conditions; winter and summer are both workable on settled days.
Typical Conditions
Sheltered inlet with sunlit shallows, a tiny pebble bay, clear water on calm days, and a short window before wind or swell makes the entry less pleasant.
Safety & Access At Wied il-Ghasri
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Overhead environmentRestricted access
Safety Notes
Wear proper footwear on the descent, expect slick limestone when damp, and do not force the cave route if wind or swell starts pushing water around the entrance.
Access Restrictions
The approach is steep, narrow, and slippery when wet. The cave route is an overhead environment, so it should only be used when the sea is calm and the team is comfortable with the extra commitment.
Legal Notes
No admission fee is described for the natural site; treat it as a public access gorge and respect weather warnings and local signage.
Local Intel For Wied il-Ghasri
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Confident shore divers or guided groups do best here. The shallow bay is the easy line; the cave itself is overhead and should be treated as such.
Freediving
Freediving works best in the shallow inlet on calm days; the darker cave entrance and deeper line are for experienced teams with local knowledge.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is best in the sheltered shallows on calm days, but the rocks, steps, and changing sea state make it a planning stop rather than a casual beach day.
