Holidays in Gozo tend to be relaxed affairs. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t get your thrills on the island. The dive sites around Gozo are said to be among the best in the Mediterranean and mountain biking, kayaking, and clifftop hiking are all opportunities. There are several must-see sights for lovers of historic wonder. Witness the spectacular Ggantija Temples, said to be older than Egypt's Pyramids. Uncover Calypso Cave, where legend says Ulysses was kept as a slave in Homer's Odyssey. Or explore the recently restored Il-Kastell fortress towering above Gozo's compact capital of Victoria. Away from the history, you'll find stunning beaches to relax on, including the orange-hued Ramla Bay. There's also plenty of shopping, with local crafts making the perfect souvenirs to remember your time away.

Fresh food is the order of the day on Gozo. The island is brimming with fruit and vegetables, which make it onto the menus of the island's relaxed eateries. The catch of the day is big news, with fresh seafood being a speciality everyone should try on their visit. But if fish isn’t your favourite pallet pleaser, then why not try the local delicacy Ġbejniet? A salted goat's cheese flavoured with crushed pepper and local tomatoes, olive oil, chilli pepper, or even wine.
