✨Gozo: Malta’s Peaceful Island Escape 🌊🏝️

#mediterranean Just a short ferry ride from Malta’s main island, Gozo is a slower, greener world of rugged cliffs, hidden beaches, and rich history. Explore the ancient Ggantija Temples, older than the pyramids, swim or snorkel at the sparkling Blue Hole near Dwejra, and wander the narrow streets of Victoria’s Citadel for panoramic views. Hike coastal trails past wildflowers and limestone arches, then unwind with fresh seafood in a quiet harbor village like Xlendi or Marsalforn. Getting There 🚤🚌 From Valletta or northern Malta, take a bus or taxi to Ċirkewwa Ferry Terminal (about 1 hour), then a scenic 25-minute ferry to Gozo’s Mgarr Harbour. Local buses and rental scooters make exploring easy. Tickets & Hours 🎟️ The Gozo Channel ferry costs about €4.65 round trip, running every 30–45 minutes. Most sights, including the Citadel, are free or charge small fees for museums. Helpful Tips 🧭 Pack comfortable shoes for hiking and a swimsuit for hidden coves. Sunset at Ta’ Ċenċ Cliffs or Ramla Bay is unforgettable, and spring or autumn offers pleasant weather with fewer crowds. Why It Matters 🌏 Gozo blends Malta’s rich past with pristine nature—a perfect retreat for hikers, history buffs, and beach lovers alike. #GozoMalta #IslandEscape #mediterraneanvibes #TripDotComFeatured
