Xwieni or Xwejni Bay is a very small but sheltered and popular bay. The bay is covered in posidonia with some small boulders and rocky alleys. Next to a tiny wall there is a nice sandy bottom where morays and other small creatures hide under rocks and inside cracks. From here you can start diving at Double Arch Reef, located at only 200 meters out of shore or at Anchor Reef. This reef is often the name of this small reef in between Reqqa Point and Double Arch Reef. Groupers, damsel and cardinal fish can be spotted. It is an easy dive site, perfect for beginners and good for advanced to dive the famous double arch.
