St. Peter’s Pool, Island of Malta, Malta
4.5 (1.530 reviews) Spent Ranking #1 in Marsaxlokk Bodies of Water • Beaches
Very nice, but go by Joe’s boat from Marsaxlokk
This natural pool at the tip of Delimara Point is a unique swimming spot, perfect for a day of adventure and relaxation. There’s a large flat slab where you can sunbathe, or you can jump off the cliffs to swim and snorkel in the crystal clear waters below. Just watch out for jellyfish. If you want to explore beyond the pool, wear good shoes and stroll along the rocky shore to find other stunning inlets like Peter’s Little Brother. You can also see historic landmarks in the area like Fort Delimara and the Il-Kalanka Lighthouse. Otherwise, visit St. Peter's Pool and other Malta highlights, including the Blue Grotto, on a full-day tour. – Tripadvisor

Beautiful clear waters, be aware of no roasting in the sun
Really nice experience with our local boat rider. Amazing clear waters and perfect for snorkelling and spending a bit of time. I will recommend to go early during the day as there is no shadow possibities and the Maltese sun can leave you fried as a crab.

fun in the blazing hot sun
It's hot and a little crowded but not too much at St. Peter's Pool. It's filled with tourists and Maltese people and though there may be a little traffic jam at the entry/exit into the water, there's plenty of space in the actual water. Conquer any fears/hesitations and jump into the water with all of the somersaulting kids and enjoy the clear blue water lapping against the limestone. I took a quick boat tour there from Marsaxlokk and it's worth it if you're not driving. An easy 30-min boat ride takes you to a landing point and then a short walk leads to the actual pool. These tours can be booked from many different vendors in the fish market and you can choose how long you want to be at the Pool (1 hour, 2 hours, longer if you dare.) At the Pool you can also walk up and there are some entrepreneurs selling cold drinks! Handy if you didn't drive in and pack a cooler. About the area... it's hot, and not just because of the sun. The white limestone bounces the light and heat right back onto you, so you can get sunburnt even in the shade. Speaking of which, shade is very limited and if you have it handy, pack a parasol/sun umbrella. I didn't have them but you might like water shoes for entering and exiting the water in some areas.
