Fessej Rock or Black Rock rises to 15 meters above the water located south of Mgarr Harbor just offshore from the Mgar Ix-Xini inlet. Boat anchorage is near the almost vertical rock. She is a rock with many boulders and an enormous diversity of fish life. It is in fact a wall where all level of divers can have their fun. Just slowly descent to the maximum depth you would like to go and from there gradually spiral the rock while ascending.

There are quite some predators next to this boulder formed wall such as dentex, barracuda and tuna. But other common fish such as groupers, octopus in cracks, tube worms, seahorses and picarel.
