Lantern Point (Ras I-Irqieqa)

A pinnacle dive site at the southwest tip of Comino, renowned for its underwater architecture. Lantern Point boasts a gently sloping plateau (~6–8 m) that leads to a spectacular vertical chimney (an L-shaped tunnel) accessible even to less experienced divers. As you descend further, steep drop-offs extend beyond 50 meters into the blue, opening into a network of caverns and swim-throughs beneath massive boulders. The site is a haven for marine life – expect to find vibrant sponges, corals, nudibranchs, and schools of fish darting around the arches and tunnels. With its maze of passages and the iconic archway/chimney, Lantern Point promises an unparalleled diving experience in the Maltese islands.
