Learn More about Gozo

Gozo, Malta's little sister, has a lovely name. It was given to it by the Spaniards who occupied this land bathed by the sun all year round. Gozo means "joy" in Castilian and there is no doubt that you will feel it when you visit this island where nature and culture are combined in harmony. The beauty of the landscape, the richness of the heritage, the lively and authentic culture... Gozo is mentioned by Homer in the Odyssey. The story goes that the nymph Calypso lived there in a cave. This myth earned Gozo the nickname 'Calypso's Island'. The island has a lot to offer travellers. Let's board immediately for a pure jewel of the Mediterranean. A few geographical points of reference to start with: Gozo (Għawdex in Maltese) is located in the northwest of Malta, between Sicily (north), Libya (south), Tunisia (west) and Crete (east). It is the second largest island in the Maltese archipelago, covering 67 km², 14 km long and 7 km wide... With a population of only 30,000, it is an essentially rural land with typically Mediterranean vegetation. The plateaus and cliffs are covered with aromatic plants (thyme, lavender...), prickly pear trees, olive trees and almond trees... In spring, bougainvilleas, hibiscus, oleanders bring their colourful touches to an enchanting setting. One of the island's major assets? The protection of nature, which is destined to be reinforced in the years to come. The Eco-Gozo programme aims to make the island 100% ecological by 2020 by making its land and sea territories ultra-clean, while ensuring economic development that is both flourishing and sustainable. Tourism with low environmental impact, creation of qualified jobs, organic and local production, renewable energy... This beautiful project, already advanced, can only satisfy both inhabitants and visitors!
