Part of the Maltese archipelago, Gozo is the second-largest of the seven-island chain and basks in the Mediterranean off the coast of Sicily. More rural than its sister island, Malta, Gozo has a population of 31,000. Home to some of the oldest religious structures in the world, the fascinating Ggantija temples, the island offers dramatic orange-red sands and perfect snorkeling waters at striking Ramla Bay. Rickety buses ply Gozo's roads, making getting about the island an exciting component of your trip.

nice peaceful spot (usually),worth the walk from main part of xlendi. Takes 15+ mins to walk round the bay, over the bridge and up the slope. dodge the bees and the sudden rise in temperature to reach the tower. Down the side of it down to the lovely smooth rock area, very limited shade available, but a couple of easy spots to get into the water, not so easy to get out. Usually very few people down there, so can enjoy some peace and quite, and watch the sea and boats bob past. Last year though, was a succession of noisy jet ski's piling past from Lewis' hire place, which was a touch annoying. Take enough water for the walk there and back, as it will warm you up no end. One my favorite places on the island.

The Dwejra Tower was built in 1652 and is one of the Lascaris Towers. Originally, the intention behind its construction was for it to act as a watchtower and guard the surrounding areas from oncoming enemies, most especially pirate landings. In 1999, renovation was completed by Din l-Art Helwa and it is now open for the public.
The tower is another off the coastal defences built around Malta and Gozo. Unfortunately we didn't have time to go in but the views are stunning and must he pretty spectacular after climbing the tower
