Gozo Malta · Area Guide
Living in Xlendi
Gozo's most scenic bay village. Xlendi is a tiny, extraordinarily beautiful bay village on Gozo's south-west coast — a cluster of apartments and restaurants around a deep turquoise inlet, surrounded by dramatic cliffs. It is a favourite with divers and is widely regarded as one of the most scenic places to live in the Maltese islands. Properties directly fronting the bay are rare and expensive.
