8 days in Mellieha Itinerary

A growing town in the northwestern section of Malta, the lively tourist destination of Mellieha sits perched between two picturesque bays.

Relax by the water at Mellieha Beach and Xlendi Beach, Cliff and Caves. Escape the urban bustle at Azure Window and Scuba & Snorkeling. Change things up with these side-trips from Mellieha: Mnajdra (in Qrendi), Blue Grotto (Il-Hnejja) (in Zurrieq) and Valletta (Upper Barrakka Gardens, Valletta Waterfront, &more). There's much more to do: pause for some serene contemplation at Mellieha Parish Church, appreciate the extensive heritage of Mdina Old City, pause for some photo ops at St Agatha's Tower, and steep yourself in history at Mellieha Air Raid Shelter.
