| The Maltese
Islands of Malta , Gozo, and Comino, lie at the heart of the Mediterranean,
90 km south of Sicily and 290 km from the northern coast of Africa.
Gozo is a third the size of Malta, but greener and more rural. Its
landscape has hills and deep valleys as well as rugged cliffs, which
give natural protection to the island's small harbours and inlets.
Life here moves at a leisurely pace, revolving around farming and
fishing.
It is an island where time seems to have stood still. There may
be de luxe hotels, wonderful small restaurants serving fish caught
only hours before being served at the table, and a nightlife in
summer to match the very best in Malta but it is all charmingly
concealed in a magnificent and truly tranquil landscape. Gozo is
where you can also get away to secluded privacy when you want to.
Little wonder it has become known as an island paradise. |
