The essential of Gozo: Azure Window Island Tour from Cruise Port
– Qala
The Qala Belvedere offers one of the most panoramic viewpoints on Gozo, providing sweeping vistas of the island’s rugged coastline and the nearby Comino Island. Located in the village of Qala, this spot is perfect for those looking to take in breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. It’s an excellent place to enjoy the sunset, making it a must-visit for photography enthusiasts and anyone seeking serenity in a beautiful setting.
– Calypso Cave
Legend has it that Calypso Cave, perched high above Ramla Bay, is where the mythical nymph Calypso held Odysseus captive in Homer’s Odyssey. The cave itself is somewhat of a mystery, but the real magic lies in the spectacular view it offers. The bay below, with its red sand and crystal-clear waters, is one of Gozo’s most beautiful beaches.
– Ggantija Museum
The Ggantija Temples are an extraordinary archaeological site and one of the world’s oldest free-standing stone structures. These Neolithic temples, dating back to around 3600 BC, predate even the pyramids of Egypt. Visitors can marvel at the massive stone walls and understand the remarkable engineering and spiritual significance of the site. A UNESCO World Heritage site, Ggantija offers insight into Malta’s prehistoric past and is a must-visit for history lovers and culture enthusiasts.
– Citadel
The Citadel, perched atop the highest point in Gozo, is an ancient fortress with a history that stretches back thousands of years. Overlooking the island’s capital, Victoria, it offers stunning panoramic views of Gozo and its surrounding areas. The charming town of Victoria itself, with its cobbled lanes, traditional shops, and lively cafes, offers a glimpse into Gozo’s cultural heritage.
– Azure Window
The Azure Window was one of Gozo’s most iconic natural landmarks before it tragically collapsed in 2017. This stunning limestone arch, formed over centuries by the forces of nature, once stood proudly over the Mediterranean Sea, creating a breathtaking scene with its deep blue waters framed by the rock formation. Despite its loss, the site remains a popular spot for visitors who come to admire the rugged coastal beauty of the area.
