About Gozo
Gozo is the perfect "getaway" island to escape to at any time of the year.
You may even combine a Gozo holiday with your Malta stay. Warm and friendly people, beautiful countryside and fantastic
weather all year round make it an ideal holiday destination. Greener, more rural and smaller than Malta, life on Gozo moves at a leisurely pace.
The rhythms dictated by the seasons, fishing and agriculture.
In winter and spring, the Island is covered with flowering herbs and lush crops. In summer, it’s awash with oleander, bougainvillea and geranium. |

Gozo is steeped in myth. Thought to be the legendary Calypso’s isle of Homer’s Odyssey, it’s a peaceful, mystical backwater.
Its rugged landscape and spectacular coastline await exploration.
Choose from rocky inlets to red sand beaches or sail, snorkel, dive and fish. Gozo has some of the Mediterranean’s best dive sites.

But there’s more. Gozo comes complete with historical sites, forts and amazing panoramas.
 Plus one of the archipelago’s best-preserved prehistoric temples,
Ggantija.
Picturesque villages with imposing baroque parish churches and charming
farmhouses dot the countryside. |

Getting to Gozo
We can organise transport for you directly from Malta International
Airport to your accommodation,
(Taxi - Ferry - Accommodation) or we can
collect you from Mgarr Harbour (Gozo). If you are making your own
way across the channel, the ferry trip takes approximately 25
minutes from Cirkewwa, (Malta) during which you sail past Comino with its glorious Blue Lagoon, just visible through a narrow entrance in the rock coastline.
Getting Around in Gozo.
Gozo is a small island, with a road network radiating to most of
the outlying villages from Victoria. It is quite easy to get around,
with roads being well signposted. The local bus service provides
transport from Rabat to most of the outlying villages at a very
small cost. However, buses can be infrequent, stop early in the
evening, and do not travel to the less populated areas, so car hire
is definitely recommended as it enables one to explore the more
picturesque places, mainly found off the beaten track.
Compared to
most holiday destinations car hire in Gozo is cheap. As a service to
our guests, we can pre-arrange for a car to be available upon your
arrival, to ensure a care-free holiday.
