This beautiful European island has average daily temperatures that can still be as high as 29C in September.
While the summer crowds may have left Malta, the warm weather certainly hasn’t.
Nestled in the heart of the Maltese Islands, Gozo attracts tourists with the promise of tranquillity, a slower pace, and a serene getaway from the bustling world.
The sea, having warmed up all summer, will still be pleasantly warm, making it ideal for snorkelling.
The entire island is just 67 square kilometres with a population of only around 39,000 residents.
Gozo is steeped in history with traces of Roman settlement and medieval structures, and even red telephone boxes, dating from British rule.
The stunning island is renowned for its gems, including the Ta’ Pinu Basilica, the medieval Citadel city, sun-drenched beaches, and top-notch diving.
The allure of Gozo is further enhanced by UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Ggantija Temples, Dwejra, and the Salt Pans.
But there are no airports on the island.
The only one is located on Malta’s main island.
To get to Gozo from Malta, your only choice is to travel by sea.
Convenient access to the island is provided by bus services that connect Malta International Airport with the ferry terminals in Valletta and Cirkewwa.
