Sunshine, watersports, tasty local cuisine, peace and quiet are just some of the hightlights of a holiday in Qawra. Situated on the north-east coast of the island of Malta and on the Qawra Peninsular, the tranquil resort of Qawra has St Paul's Bay to the north and Salina Bay to the south, with the bustling resort of Buggiba its nearest neighbour.
The attractive seafront promenade backs the rocky beach, where the flat stones are large enough to sunbathe on, and ideal surroundings for watersports suchas as scuba diving and diving. The nearest sandy beaches can be found a short drive away at Mellieha Bay and Golden Bay. Culture fans can discover The Qawra Tower, the St Agtha Tower and St Paul's Shipwreck Church nearby.
Further afield there's the inland fortified city of Mdina, the catacombs at Rabat or the Grand Harbour at Valletta to explore. Join in the local village fiestas in the summer months, with processions and fireworks to enjoy. Combine all this with an excellent choice of modern hotels and apartments, excellent dining options and a sunny Mediterranean climate and it's easy to see why a holiday in Qawra is the perfect choice.
