Get to know the place
St Thomas Bay offers a different surface setting from Delimara’s rock pools. Discuss the intended shoreline section and the entry with a bay-based provider. Keep the snorkelling area separate from kayak launches, towable lanes and the outward Munxar route.
What to see
- Sandy bay and rocky edges
- Shoreline seabed details
- Marsaskala’s southern coastal backdrop
Features and marine-life sightings depend on the agreed route and conditions.
