Xlendi Bay

A narrow bay on Gozo's southwest coast places a small waterfront settlement between high slopes. It suits a seaside walk with a strong contrast between village and limestone landscape.

Xlendi Bay

Why go

The bay's enclosing cliffs helped shelter a historic harbour, while a seventeenth-century watchtower guarded its mouth. The modern waterfront is compact, so the landscape remains close throughout a visit. Looking outward from the village towards the tower gives a clear sense of how this small inlet connected with the wider sea.

What to look for

  • The narrow bay and enclosing cliffs
  • Xlendi Tower near the bay mouth
  • The village waterfront

Useful to know

  • Combine a waterfront walk with a view towards Xlendi Tower.
  • Treat walks beyond the waterfront as a separate outdoor choice with different terrain.
