Marsaxlokk Fishing Village

Marsaxlokk Fishing Village

Marsaxlokk is the best known fishing-village in Malta. It lies on a vast bay which is surrounded by two tongues, Delimara Point in the south-east and Benghisa Point in the south-west (behind Birzebbuga).

Marsaxlokk is a nice excursion-destination. The daily market takes place from 9:00am to 4:00pm. However, during the week the market is quite small and fewer people are there. On the weekend it grows to a huge event and the market spans all over the promenade. On Sunday it’s the biggest and the whole promenade is full of people.

The bay of Marsaxlokk is nice and filled with traditional boats, so called Luzzu- or Dghajjes-boats. The city has the biggest fishing-fleet in Malta.
Marsaxlokk is an excursion-destination - especially the market entices many tourists. The village has no hotels and only few other accommodations. Around the centre are some nice restaurants which offer fish and Maltese-specialities. Recommended and a must here are the sea food and fish, because they are very, very fresh here. That’s all about Marsaxlokk.

Mdina & Rabat

Mdina - the old capital

Mdina is the old capital city of Malta and lies on the south-western part of the island. You could say only a little bit in the outback. Beside it is Rabat. The population of Mdina is around 400 people. It is quite impossible that the population can increase, because the whole city resembles more a castle or fort then a city. The city lies 190mtrs above sea level (that’s quite high for Maltese landscape) and is surrounded with slopes on three sides. The city has almost the form of a square and is very strong fortified.

Swieqi

Swieqi is a calm and also nice district/village above St. Julians and adjacent to Paceville. From Swieqi you just need between 5 - 15 Minutes by walk to the entertainment centre Paceville or to St. Julians. Swieqi is a nice place to live. Dogs are allowed; almost everybody has at least one. The prices for flats/houses are comparably cheap.

Birzebbugia - sothern city in Malta

Birzebbuga lies deep in the south on the great bay of Marsaxlokk(Pretty Bay). The city is very nice and has a certain charm. Unfortunately, this charm is shadowed by the cranes of the Malta Freeport, the air traffic and the oil tanks/pipelines of EneMalta nowadays. The bay has a nice promenade which follows the whole coastline in Birzebbuga.
