Tas-Sanaap Cliffs - Fontana, Gozo

Gozo's best kept secret is located in a very remote area, taking you through the rubble stone passages amidst some truly lush countryside.  Tas-Sanaap Cliffs are the highest point of the island and the vast views enjoyed are truly spectacular. Can I go with my car? Yes, you should be able to pass through the narrow passages until you have to stop. The view is best enjoyed during the golden hour before sunset, when the daylight is redder and softer than usual. Location:   South West of Gozo.  Accessed through Sanna Village

Ta' Gurdan Lighthouse - Gozo

Having the privilege of living in Gozo, I spend a lot of time during the winter, autumn and spring months rambling around the island. One of our favourite walks is around the North West of the Island and in particular the area around Gharb towards the Ta' Gurdan Lighthouse.  Watching the sun set in the west is breath-taking and there is no better spot then perched up high overlooking the rich terrain below. The lighthouse was built in 1851 when the Maltese Islands were ruled by the British,  It was constructed due to the large volume of maritime traffic that started arriving in the area.  Originally the Lighthouse had one oil lantern with a rotating reflector but then had an upgrade with 21 custom made lamps and silver plated reflectors making it visible from u to 60 km away. As modern technology took over, the lighthouse was automated but it has more than  served its purpose over the years.
