Il-Bajja ta' Fomm ir-Riħ

Fomm ir-Riħ is one of Malta's most dramatic and secluded bays, tucked into the rugged western coastline near Mġarr. A geological fault line shapes the whole area, with sheer cliffs dropping around 100 feet straight to the water — it's genuinely wild and largely untouched. You anchor off here since the land access is notoriously tricky, making this a spot most people simply never reach.
