Xlendi

The village of Kercem, which is close to Victoria (Rabat), the nation's capital, leads to Xlendi Malta Bay Gozo, which is situated at the bottom of a very steep valley. The more one descends into the valley on the way to the Bay, the more one can take in the surrounding greenery. Depending on the time of year, one may also notice how much cane is growing in the valley as they near the parking lot. Both tourists and Maltese regularly visit this well-liked neighborhood, not to mention the locals themselves. Although the beach is small, it is one of the island's best locations.

The Bay used to be a sleepy fishing community with some fishermen still residing there today due to its geological formation and shallow, sloping pebbly beach. Due to the peaceful surroundings, it is also well-liked as a summer residence where many locals stay in their boathouse. The majority of the properties in Xlendi Malta have been converted into restaurants, bars, shops, guest houses, and hotels, making the area more of a resort.
