Gozo’s Azure Arch, Dwejra

We hiked from Xlendi to Rabat, then out along another winding road to Dwejra. Stepping into a small boat on a tiny lake, we motored along a tunnel in the cliff out into the Mediterranean Sea where we followed a rocky coastline to Azure Arch. Later, from the car park, we climbed rocks and found the arch but it didn’t look as stunning as it had from the opposite view in the boat.

On my first trip to Malta, the main island may not have left much of an impression on me, but Gozo did. Less buildings, less traffic, magnificent cliffs and the coast line around Azure Arch was stunning.
