Gozo

|
Named by the Aragonese who invaded the island in the thirteenth century, Gozo means joy' in Castillian; an apt description of the emotion felt by so many visitors after a holiday on this truly delightful little island. Only fourteen kilometres long and seven kilometres from top to bottom, Gozo may be small in stature, but it's very big on history, natural beauty and charm. The island lies between Sicily and the coast of North Africa, separated by just five kilometres of sea from its sister island of Malta, from which regular ferries bring visitors into the harbour at Mgarr.
Gozo is not an island for those seeking bright lights and the hustle and bustle of other Mediterranean resorts. Here the pace of life is slow and relaxed. The towns have far more churches than they do souvenir shops and the charm of this tiny, tranquil haven is decidedly more rustic than riotous
