View of St. George's Bay Cliffs

Highlight • Viewpoint

The city now growing larger in front of us, the cliffs behind us getting smaller, we pass the middle of the bay.

Looking in both directions, a panorama opens up that will stay with us.

March 1, 2024,Malta: Marsaxlokk und Marsaskala

Coast and hinterland of these two port cities in the east of Malta. Marsaxlokk is known for its colorful boats. The highlight is certainly the narrow path up the sparkling white St. Thomas Bay Cliffs. At the end of the tour you can enjoy freshly caught fish in the Roots restaurant.

100% asphalt. As soon as you move away from the coast in Malta, the whole hinterland is full of rubbish and rubble. On the coast, too, one comes across hotel ruins again and again.
