Further refurbishment at Cirkewwa changing rooms

We’re happy to note that further refurbishment has been carried out at the Cirkewwa changing / shower rooms. In a video shared with us the refurbishment made the rooms more welcoming and further embellished so that with the pictures hanging, divers visiting the site for the first time can get to know more what they can spot underwater and keep their eyes peeled 🙂

Thanks to Brian Azzopardi and the support of the Malta Tourism Authority and the Cirkewwa Marine Park management for keeping the land-side part spic and span. Now divers, do your bit and please respect their good work!
