Gozo Holidays

Gozo & Comino, Malta's smaller sister islands offer a completely different style of holiday to other Mediterranean Islands. The Gozitan countryside, interspersed with charming villages still shows its traditional pastoral character. Gozo has a more relaxed atmosphere shown through its Gozitan and baroque architecture seen in its towns and villages.

Enjoy the culture on a Gozo Holiday or the Scenery on a Comino Holiday

Upon arrival of your flight to Malta your Gozo holiday begins with a transfer to the ferry port at Cirkewwa and then a ferry trip past the Island of Comino to the main harbour of Mgarr, on Gozo. You will then be transferred to your hotel to begin your holiday in the perfect year round holiday destination.

The warm waters, coastline and bays surrounding the island make Gozo and Comino Holidays ideal for people looking for snorkelling and diving. Anybody looking for history and culture just has to step outside their hotel to see some of what Gozo has to offer including the Ggantija Temples thought to be the oldest free standing structures in the world. Or if you are looking for a relaxing holiday away, the multitude of 'al fresco' style restaurants and Gozo's red sand beaches will be right up your street - in short a Gozo Holiday has it all. Comino is just perfect for those looking for a serene escape surrounded by unspoilt countryside, stunning coastal scenery and nature.
