Gozo

Gozo, Malta's adjacent island, is both small and picturesque being mostly green and fertile. The island is nine miles long and four miles wide, and is easily accessible by ferry from Cirkewwa (20 mins), or helicopter transfer over some spectacular scenery from Malta (10 mins). Marfa Bay will be your first experience of the island if you arrive here by ferry. Marfa has fantastic views from Marfa Ridge across to Comino and Gozo. Visit the splendid Norman Citadel in the capital, Victoria. There are plenty of fishing villages and secluded bays to explore, while ancient sites make the island an archaeologist's paradise.
