From the Malta World / Places

Inland Sea Gozo

A seawater lagoon connects to open sea through a narrow limestone tunnel at Dwejra. The calm-looking inner shore gives a different perspective from the exposed coast outside.

Inland Sea Gozo

Why go

The lagoon probably formed when the roof of a sea cave collapsed along a geological fault. Fishermen's huts and boats line its stony beach, showing how people use this unusual opening in the coast. Looking towards the tunnel makes the connection between enclosed water and the Mediterranean easy to understand.

What to look for

  • The natural tunnel through the cliff
  • The stony lagoon shore
  • Fishermen's huts and boats

Useful to know

  • Combine the lagoon with Dwejra Bay on the same coastal visit.
  • Ask locally about sea conditions before considering a boat trip through the tunnel.
