Ramla Bay
About
Ramla Bay is a picturesque beach on the northeastern coast of Gozo, Malta’s second‑largest island. The bay is famed for its striking red, pebbled shoreline that gives the sea its distinctive hue. Stretching across a wide expanse, the beach is framed by lush green cliffs and offers calm, turquoise waters ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Because of its location between the popular bays of Marsalforn to the south and San Blas to the north, Ramla Bay provides a quieter alternative for those seeking a more relaxed beach experience while still being within easy reach of local amenities. The nearest village, Xagħra, serves as a convenient base for exploring other attractions on Gozo, such as the Ġgantija Megalithic Temples and the historic Gozo Cathedral. During the summer months the beach sees a steady flow of tourists, but it remains accessible throughout the year, with soft, gentle waves making it suitable for all ages. Whether you’re planning a family outing, a romantic stroll, or a day of water‑sports, Ramla Bay offers a tranquil setting and a unique landscape that makes it a must‑see destination on the island.
