Xatt L'ahmar literally means "Red beach" and of particular interest to experienced divers is the wreck of the deliberately scuttled old Malta-Gozo Ferryboat "ix-Xlendi" which lies in the depths just beyond the bay, nowadays joined by two more wrecks west of it, the Cominoland and the Karwela. The bay itself is quite shallow, reaching depths up to 12 meters but then suddenly slopes down drastically to 20 meters where there's the drop-off to 34-36 meters where you will find a cave and a massive overhang. Looking towards sea, on your right hand the drop-off changes to a steep slope to 36 meters.
