Ghar Hasan Cave, Gozo

Ghar Hasan Cave offers a breathtaking view of Gozo’s main sandy beach, Ramla Bay. The entrance to the cave can be reached after a hike and by walking down a few dodgy steps. We can guarantee that the view is worth the risk!

Cittadella, Gozo

Gozo’s Citadel, or “Cittadella,” is located in Gozo’s capital Victoria. The first fortifications date back to about 1500 BC, with the Cittadella as we know it today built between the 15th and 17th centuries. In addition to offering a sneak peek into the past, the Cittadella is also a great location from which you can view the rest of Victoria and the surrounding village.
