Bajja ta' San Filep Anchorage
Bajja ta' San Filep (St Philip's Bay) is a quiet anchorage on the northeast coast of Gozo, near Mġarr, where you drop the hook in calm, sheltered water tucked away from the open sea. It's the kind of spot that feels genuinely off the beaten track, with rocky coastline, clear water, and a small wayside niche dedicated to St Philip carved into the nearby rock face — a classic piece of Maltese rural character. There's nothing here in terms of onshore facilities, so come self-sufficient and enjoy the solitude.
