Singita Miracle Beach

In May 2018 the first Singita outside Italy was inaugurated, in the amazing natural setting of Ghajn Tuffieha, north of Malta. The green area and the blue of the sea surround the kiosk. As evening falls, the soft light of candles and lanterns, and the notes of chill out music lead us towards sunset, which remains one of the most spectacular moments of the day.

This place is magical and so romantic, we went first for a lunch because we were on the beach and it was the only restaurant, we were so surprised, food was good and healthy, you can either have breakfast, lunch or dinner, because of the view and the amazing staff we decided to go back there for dinner, and in the evening the place is even better, you can watch the sunset and after dinner you can sit on the beach and watch the stars, the food changes and we had fish on the grill, amazing, I really like the Italian style of the place, with a fusion!

Ta' Hagrat Temples

Set in the heart of Mgarr - a village in Northwest Malta - and smaller than most other sites of a similar nature, Ta' Hagrat is home to two well-preserved structures. The site was excavated between 1923 and 1926 with some other minor interventions in 1953 and in the 1960s. The larger of the two buildings dates from the earliest phases of megalithic construction - the Ggantija phase (3600 - 3200 BC).

We caught two buses from Rabat to get to Ta’ Ħaġrat and we alighted at the bus stop, which appeared to be the heart of the town. There was not a sign anywhere indicating where the temples were. We don’t have internet capability on our phones, however we did have a printout from Google Maps, which helped. We walked down to the temples and were about to enter, when a young woman came out of a shed like structure and brusquely asked if we had tickets, which we didn’t, we assumed they were purchased on site. She told us to go back to the shop opposite the church to buy them. She wandered back into her shed, my husband left to buy the tickets. While waiting for him to come back I walked inside the gate to take some photos, when the same woman charged out of her shed, snapping at me to wait outside the gate. While speaking to a number of people in Malta, they saw they way forward for them was tourism, obviously no-one relayed the message to this woman. We were the only people at the site, just think she didn’t want to come out of her shed. The whole purchasing of tickets is clumsy and signage should be better, although the latter was an ongoing problem all over Malta. The temples themselves are great, while there were a lot of weeds growing around the structure, it in no way diminished the site, if anything there is a preference to have a little wildness with ruins, as long as the weeds aren’t obscuring, what you’re supposed to be looking at. A couple of other temples we visited on the island were undercover and while understanding for preservation this is needed, they did seem a little lack lustre for it, which was one of the reasons Ta’ Ħaġrat was so special, as it is all open. The entrance of steps and the doorway itself is pretty spectacular. The temples are dated 3,600BC-3,200BC and the site was excavated 1923-1926.

Skorba Temples

Skorba comprises a megalithic temple and a Neolithic settlement. The former belongs to the three-apsed type and is datable to 3600 to 3200 before Christ. A number of huts were discovered to its west. Their excavation in the 1960s provided a rare opportunity to get to know better the temple builders and their immediate ancestors.
