9 Best Places to Visit in Gozo

The Island of Calypso, offers a slower pace of life than that of its sister island, Malta.
Gozo, sits just 5km North west of Malta. With rolling hills, lush countryside and a smaller population, Gozo offers visitors a quieter option for Mediterranean living.

If you are looking for a safe haven, Gozo is most certainly it. Just 25 minutes away by ferry, you will escape the hustle and bustle that Malta has to offer.

For centuries, life in Gozo was tough. Unlike Malta, Gozo was sparsely protected, leaving it open to the Knights, Barbary corsairs and Saracens who continuously raided the island at intervals. In 1551, the Saracens carried out a devastating raid, taking almost the entire population away into slavery.

The Island never really recovered from this and remained under populated for centuries until the arrival of the Knights saw the medieval Citadel refortified.

While Gozo is a part of the Maltese Islands, the people are proud of having their own identity and traditions. With their own accent, Gozitans are known for their warm hospitality, openness and friendliness to visitors. The real beauty of Gozo, apart from its stunning coastline and beautiful countryside, lies in the villages. The beautiful architecture and slow pace of life makes it an absolute pleasure to spend any time here. You really do feel like you have stepped back in time, where the day seems to last longer than that on busy Malta. Locals treasure their peace and the villages are tranquil, proving a wonderful respite from the trials and tribulations of everyday life for visitors.
