Pretty as a postcard

Head down through the cliffs and you’ll soon be in Sannat. The village is nothing short of sheer beauty – go diving in the warm waters, or stay afloat by the historic sights. Sannat’s main affair is its ornate church. Its grand spires and fascinating dome steal the show in holiday photos.

Traditional touches

Trudge around the delicate temple if you want to see more of the older Sannat, or take the ferry over to Malta to experience more culture and food than you can imagine. Back in Gozo, shop in the capital, Victoria – famous for its lace, pick up decorated handkerchiefs to pack in the suitcase.
