St Peter's Pool is a stunning natural inlet on Malta's southeastern coast, known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and smooth limestone slabs that form a perfect sunbathing area. This secluded spot is popular among locals and visitors for swimming, snorkeling, and cliff diving, with rocky platforms of varying heights for jumps. The pool is surrounded by rugged coastline, offering scenic views of the open sea. Unlike sandy beaches, the terrain is rocky, so water shoes are recommended. It's a peaceful escape from busier tourist spots, especially on weekdays.

Don't miss

  • Dive from the smooth rock platforms into the deep, clear water.
  • Sunbathe on the flat limestone slabs surrounding the pool.
  • Snorkel to see small fish and underwater rock formations.
