We enjoyed walking from Mgarr harbour along the cliff top walk to Hindoq with spectacular views out over Comino and Malta beyond. Hondoq itself is a lovely small bay with a restaurant which gets busy in the summer season but is very quiet at the time of year we were most recently there (January)

We discovered this place by 'accident' as we were driving around the island. It is amazing, for a mere 4euro you can take a boat trip through the natural arch into the sea which is the bluest any of us have ever seen, as if someone had tipped a bottle of ink into the water, incredible. We swam in the 'inland sea' but it is a place to dive , equipment can be hired. There is ample parking , a great restaurant where we had a stunning lunch of locally caught grilled fish.....also a small bar/cafe right beside the water where we enjoyed a local beer.

I love this bay, as do all the family. Faboulous snorkelling, with loads of fish to spot in the clear waters, and great fun to be had (for the boys, not me!) jumping off the rocks and into the bay. Rented kayaks for the boys this time, which gave them great enjoyment! Not a bay to go for for sand and sandcastles, but for fun in the water, a swim in a safe environment, snorkelling and canoeing, there is no better place. Very steep road/track down to the bay, with limited parking....not for the faint-hearted! Reviews of the cafe elsewhere in my reviews!!!! No toilet or lifeguard in late October, but I do know that they have both earlier in the season.

A must to visit while on holiday in Gozo. The red sandy beach is very clean and easy to get there with a bus. Make sure to wear a shoes or sandals when walking on the sand as it will be very hot and not easy walking bare foot. You can buy these shoes that you can also swim with cause even when you go in the water you find lots of pebbles and its easily to hurt your feet so if you wear a proper shoes it makes it more easy to go in the water. Before you go back home, don't forget to stop at the truck just outside on the street that sells different types of ice creams and flavours to slush and cold drinks. The ice creams are to die for from the Ferrero Rocher to Nutella, to Oreo, to what you can imagine. And while you are there also try to visit the Calypso cave which is very near and you can admire the view of the bay from the cave. I recommend it to everyone even with kids
