Marsaxlokk Bay
First, we start off by visiting the picturesque village of Marsaxlokk, in the south-east of Malta. This is a very small village renowned for its fishing community. It offers peaceful walks and nice cafes along the water strip. If we go on a Sunday then we will be enjoying its typical markets with food and fish stalls, clothing wares and various other nick-nacks.
1 hourXarolla Windmill
After Marsaxlokk, we will be visiting Żurrieq, one of the oldest towns on the island. Here we will be visiting the Xarolla Windmill which is the only functioning windmill in Malta that can still grind wheat. There are a number of adjacent catacombs which can be easily explored near the Windmill.
20 minutesBlue Grotto (Il-Hnejja)
Żurrieq is also famous for the beach in Wied iż-Żurrieq and the Blue Grotto which will be our next stop. If you love the sea, then you will surely fall in love with the cool blue waters of Zurrieq. Here you will have the option to take a boat ride and have a closer look at the beauty of the Maltese coast. During summer, you can take a refreshing dip in the sea and lunch in one of the restaurants serving typical Mediterranean cuisine.
1 hour 40 minutesHagar Qim Temples
Our last destination will be at the site of two of the most famous Megalithic Temples of Malta, Hagar Qim and Mnajdra in Qrendi dating 3600-3200 BC.
