This comprehensive book is the diver's key to this rich variety of diving. Based on the author's experience over a period of almost twenty five years, it is a clearly laid out, A4-sized, full-colour, 224 page guide which takes you on a trip around the seas of Malta. The book features 45 shore dive sites, each illustrated with an aerial photograph and easy-to-follow 3D map. The most favourable entry and exit points, depths and underwater landscapes are shown, helping to make each dive as stress free and safe as possible. And there is a selection of 52 boat dives with information and history for each site. Hundreds of supporting photographs cover the marine life, wrecks, artificial reefs, local knowledge and places of interest. A book for all, Scuba Diving Malta Gozo Comino is suitable for experienced independent divers, those who require accompanied diving and beginners. Highly illustrated as well as informative, this guide makes an ideal coffee table book as much as it does a reference book or beautiful souvenir. **A FREE printed insert included with the book updates some key changes to dive sites which happened post-publication: Tugboat 2 at Exiles (St. Julian's Point), Sliema has moved into the reef; and the Azure Window, Dwejra (Gozo), which collapsed in 2017, changing several classic dive routes in that area.

Peter Lemon began diving in 1982 and is now a BSAC Advanced Instructor. It was 1983 when he first set eyes on the Maltese islands. Since then he has visited them around a hundred times and still enjoys the variety of diving which these shores have to offer. These islands have become a part of his life and he has completed more than 2,000 dives here. This is the fourth edition of this guide that he has produced (with help from his wife Sue).
