3-8m near the boat with reefs just below the surface, ideal for beginners and confident snorkelers alike.

Yes. Life jackets are free, the sea is calm inside the cape, and you can swim right off the boat's ladder.

Absolutely — that's exactly how it works. Jump straight from the swim platform into clear water above the reef.

Swimwear on under your clothes, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, and any prescription mask if you snorkel — otherwise the ship's masks and life jackets are free.
Where are the best photo spots at Kepi i Qefalit?+
Above water, shoot from the swim ladder looking back at the boat with the cape behind it. Below water, the reef edge 15m off the stern is where the fish gather.
Is Kepi i Qefalit family-friendly?+
Yes. It's the first swim of the day so we take it slowly — infant life jackets are free, the crew is in the water with hesitant swimmers, and the ladder has a low first step.
