Malta, Malta

---

Marsalforn is a popular seaside resort town on the north coast of Gozo, the second-largest island of the Maltese archipelago, known for its stunning views, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and vibrant coastal atmosphere. The town is centered around Marsalforn Bay, one of Gozo's larger bays, which features clear blue crystalline sea that attracts artists, photographers, swimmers, and snorkelers year-round. Marsalforn is famous for its sandy beach area sheltered by a breakwater, making it ideal for families with young children, while stronger swimmers enjoy rocky swimming spots like Il-Ponta ta' Santa Marija and Għar Qawqla. The village boasts numerous seaside restaurants, hotels, B&Bs, guesthouses, and self-catering apartments, many within a five-minute walk from the beach and offering glorious bay or sea views with stunning sunrises and sunsets. It serves as a complete seaside resort with shops, cafes, bars, and several SCUBA diving centers along the seafront, plus a picturesque church dedicated to Saint Paul's Shipwreck with a visible steeple and clock tower.
