The Arch is actually a cavern which roof has long since collapsed leaving the arch as a result. The Arch is at 12 meters below the surface and 8 metres above the seabed. On the way to the Arch there are also some nice caves/tunnels. Entry to the sea for the Arch dive is from a large stride entry point (same as for tugboat Rozi wreck). When diving along the wall and the reef it is fairly shallow dive at around 18-20 m. Diving the Arch can also be combined with Tugboat Rozi dive. The reef continues well beyond the Arch around the depth of 15-20 and further on the seabed next to the reef/wall reaches depths over 40 meters. The wall offers many small caves and hangouts. This part of the reef is called Reef Beyond Rozi. Cirkewwa Arch is also known as Right Arch or Green Arch. There is another less known arch in Cirkewwa at Paradise Bay reef called Left Arch or White Arch.

Halfway along the reef wall there is a statue of our lady, also known as Madonna, in a small cave at a depth of 18 metres. The Madonna statue was placed in this cavern by a local dive club Amphibians Diving Club in November 1987. For the 20th anniversary in 2007 the dive club added a commemorative plaque.
