Blue Grotto is a complex of seven caves found along the southern coast of the island Malta, right across from the little islet of Filfla (the island now serves as a bird sanctuary), and less than a kilometre west of Wied iż-Żurrieq.
But not many people are away that Malta includes yet another small island which is, however, completely uninhabited – Filfa. The island is small in size but remarkably beautiful and it can still be enjoyed by viewing it from the coastal area.
Interesting facts about
Blue Grotto
This complex of Blue Grotto comprises of very impressive main arch, which is approximately 30m in height, and a system of caves that were created by centuries of persistent action of the waves and the elements.
The location of the caves, combined with the rays of sunlight, lead to the seawater mirroring and showing numerous shades of blue on the cave walls and ceilings.
The true beauty of the place shines through on clear, sunny days.
Adding to this, the cave walls mirror the brilliant phosphorescent orange, purple and green colours of the underwater flora, resulting in a mesmerizing scene of light and colour.
A common Sunday combination is the visiting Blue Grotto and Marsaxlokk.
