Gozo savings

Located on the seafront of the small fishing village of Xlendi, St Andrew's Cove dive centre has been in operation since 1989, offering a range of shore and boat dives for guided or independent divers.

"There are around 30 dive sites accessed from the shore and boat across Gozo and Comino," says Regaldive. "The water clarity and stable conditions around Gozo make it ideal for learners, whilst the arches, tunnels and caves will delight the most experienced diver looking for an alternative to reefs, on more challenging dives."

St Andrew's Cove dive packs and courses start at £79 for 6 days' unlimited, unguided, shore diving.
