Gozo

Malta’s sister island is Gozo and just 25 minutes away by ferry. Gozo is significantly smaller and more tranquil then Malta with large farmhouses being a popular choice with tourists wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of life. When visiting Gozo be sure to visit the Azure Window a natural limestone arch is situated near Dwejra Bay on the Inland Sea. If you have time Gozo is well worth the trip however we do highly recommend hiring a car to make the most of your time in Gozo.
