Location
Xagħra is one of Gozo’s most captivating and historically rich villages, offering a unique blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and vibrant community life. Perched on a plateau in the northeastern part of the island, Xagħra boasts stunning views over the surrounding countryside and the Mediterranean Sea, making it a picturesque destination for visitors.
The village is perhaps best known for its remarkable archaeological sites, which offer a glimpse into the ancient past of the Maltese islands. The Ġgantija Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are among the oldest free-standing structures in the world, dating back over 5,500 years. These megalithic temples are shrouded in mystery and are a testament to the advanced society that once thrived on the island.
Xagħra is also known for its vibrant local traditions and religious festivals. The village’s parish church, dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin Mary, is a stunning example of baroque architecture and is the focal point of the village’s annual festa, celebrated with great enthusiasm every September. The event features fireworks, processions, and lively street celebrations, drawing both locals and visitors together in a joyful display of community spirit.
The village’s natural surroundings add to its appeal, with the nearby Ramla Bay offering one of the most beautiful beaches in the Maltese archipelago. Known for its distinctive red sand and clear waters, Ramla Bay is a favorite spot for both relaxation and water activities. The nearby Calypso Cave, which is believed to be the legendary cave mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey, offers panoramic views of the bay and the surrounding landscape.
