Freediving in Caves & Tunnels, Gozo, Sept 8th

Freediving in caves and tunnels with Alex on Gozo, Malta. Sites visited: 1. Inland Sea (Dwerja), 2. Blue Hole (Dwerja), 3. Tunnel outside of the Blue Hole.  4. Xlendi cave, 5. Cathedral Cave.  Great conditions, warm water so we skipped wetsuits for the later dives. I tried using the GoPro as a “belly-cam” and it worked out pretty good, and nice to be hands-free while diving.

Freediving, Inland Sea tunnel & Blue Hole, Gozo, Aug 26th

Sunday session at the dive sites Inland Sea tunnel and the Blue Hole on Gozo. Clear water and amazing views.. I was solo which is not ideal from a safety point, so I didn't push it, just casual swims.. First time there since the Azur Window disappeared into the sea in a big storm, a scenic view that is missed..

Scuba Diving, Malta & Gozo, 18th-20th of Nov







Three days of scuba diving in Malta.. First day included some easy dives around Sliema, second day two nice wreck dives on the northwestern side of Malta, Rosie the tug boat and the P29 patrol boat.. At around 35 meters deep these boats offer plenty of marine life and visability was superb.. Third day, we went to Gozo and the Inland sea and Blue hole dive sites, with cool caves, tunnels and steep drop-offs..

Scuba Diving, Gozo






Went on a Saturday trip to Gozo with Jesper, Rafn and Lidia for scuba diving.. We had three great dives on the sites Middle Finger, Coral Cave, Coral hole and the Inland Sea, the last site with a very cool tunnel out into the sea.. Got these nice photos as Jesper and Rafn had a camera for under-water photography.. As usual, some big fishes I didn't know the names of.. The grand under-water sceneries were the high-lights. And just spending a long day out in good company of course..

Kayak Surfing, Ramla Bay, Gozo







Went to Ramla Bay on the north coast of Gozo not expecting to get more than a lazy paddle in calm waters, but to my surprise there were decent waves. So decent in fact that I tumbled over several times, so I got to try the 17C sea water properly.. Being a beginner in this sport, combined with a slight hangover and a long while since the last session, the breaking waves near shore proved quite a challenge.. But despite that, I caught quite a few waves and it was lots of fun! Some 2,5 hours later with heavy arms and a change of clothes, a pint and a pizza completed a great day..

Mtb Daytrip: Sliema, Gozo, Popeye Village




A full day on the bike in nice November weather, around 20 C and sunny.. Left Sliema 8.30 AM and headed on the main road towards the ferry to Gozo.. After espresso and cake I headed over to the smaller sister island and zig-zagged my way towards Ramla Bay on the north coast, a very pretty beach I wish I had visited while it was still summer and warm in the sea.. Back on Malta I found a couple of new challenging trails and passed Popeye Village, the settings of one of Robin Williams early movies.. Riding on a few more dirt roads up on ridges I headed home again, back in the flat about 8 hours after leaving it..
