About Mellieħa
Melliħa — northern town: beaches, attractions, transport and living
Melliħa is a town in the Northern District of Malta, set on a ridge in the north of the island. It is known for Melliħa Bay (Għadira), Malta's largest sandy beach, and for its proximity to the Ċirkewwa ferry terminal for Gozo.
Where is Melliħa?
Melliħa is in the north of the main island of Malta, in the Northern District, set on a hilltop above a coastal plain. It borders St Paul's Bay to the south and extends north towards the Ċirkewwa peninsula, the departure point for the Gozo ferry. Melliħa Bay lies below the town.
History of Melliħa
The Melliħa area has a long history of settlement, with the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Melliħa, a shrine built into a cave, as a long-standing place of pilgrimage. Saint Agatha's Tower (the Red Tower), built by the Order of St John in the 17th century, stands on the Marfa Ridge and formed part of the island's coastal defences. The town grew significantly in the modern period as agriculture, tourism and residential development expanded.
What to see in Melliħa
Melliħa Bay (Għadira) — Malta's largest sandy beach, on the coast below the town. Popeye Village (Anchor Bay) — a film set built for the 1980 film Popeye, now a visitor attraction. Sanctuary of Our Lady of Melliħa — a historic cave shrine and place of pilgrimage. Saint Agatha's Tower (Red Tower) — a 17th-century coastal watchtower on the Marfa Ridge. Coastal walks and bays — including the beaches and nature reserve around Għadira.
Transport in Melliħa
Melliħa is connected by bus to St Paul's Bay, the central towns and Valletta via Malta Public Transport, with routes continuing north to the Ċirkewwa ferry terminal. From Ċirkewwa, the Gozo Channel car and passenger ferry crosses to Mġarr on Gozo. A car is helpful for reaching the more dispersed bays and beaches.
Living in Melliħa
Melliħa is a large northern town offering beaches, resort areas and a residential hilltop core, more spread out than the harbour towns. It is popular for holidays and second homes, especially near the coast. Cost and housing assessments should be based on current market data.
