Coral lagoon and White tower, Mellieha, Malta - cinematic to FPV short film

The Coral Lagoon is also known as Dragonara Cave. Located in Mellieha and a stone’s throw from L-Ahrax and Armier Bay, this naturally formed cave is an underwater paradise. As it is open to daylight, the water is kept warm. This leads to a unique menagerie of flora and fauna that can grow, and a unique habitat where you can find everything from different starfish species, false corals, red sponges and golden cup corals.
The reel also features L-Ahrax Tower , also known as the "White Tower" or "Torri l-Abjad" in Maltese. L-Ahrax Tower was one of those thirteen coastal towers built around Malta by Grand Master De Redin in the mid 17th century. This tower was the sixth one built in this system of coastal towers. The intention was to sound alarm in case of sighting an enemy fleet or an enemy force disembarking troops in a particular bay/s. This was the third tower to be built in Mellieha village after the building of Ghajn Tuffieha Tower in 1637 and the Red Tower or Fort St. Agatha in 1648.
