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.

1. Dwejra Marine Environmental Education Centre
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 31 reviews
Situated a mere few metres from Dwejra’s inland sea, the environmental education centre acts as the perfect accompaniment to a site of such natural complexity and interest. Dwejra has its own centre on location where anyone – divers, tourists, swimmers, children – can learn about what is special about Dwejra’s underwater landscape.

Loved “taking a scuba dive without getting wet” in this small, interesting center! The video was beautifully done and truly did let us visit the incredible undersea world around Dwerja. Learned so much more about Maltese marine life in a very entertaining format for adults and children. There is a great pictoral story of the erosion of the azure window from 1879 until its final disappearance. One of the very best parts of the visit was talking to Annie, the staff member on duty. She shared delightful stories of childhood days at the inland sea with her grandfather, which instilled in her a passion for the natural surroundings, land and sea, on this lovely island. As you walk down to the inland sea – don’t walk by without stopping in!

Ta' Kola Windmill in Xaghra, Gozo, is one of the few surviving windmills on the Maltese Islands dating back to the Knights' Period. Its origins go back to 1725 during the magistracy of Grand Master Manoel de Vilhena (1722-36). Nowadays, the windmill houses one of the largest known collections of tools, some of which were manufactured by the last miller who lived inside the mill. The site offers a glimpse into the traditional rural life of the locals during the past centuries.

We had a ticket for this and Ggantija and nearly did not come to the mill but it is a great little museum and well worth visiting. Lots of interesting tools and history, including a short history of food production in the region.

Interesting collection of old toys from all around the world. Museum is running by nice old couple, they also tell you some information about special pieces. You can pop in while "waiting for a bus" - the bus stop is right next to museum.
