Il-Bajja ta' Għajn Tuffieħa

Għajn Tuffieħa, known as Riviera Bay, is a wild, sandy beach tucked on Malta's northwest coast, about 345 metres south of the busier Golden Bay. You'll anchor off here and get yourself ashore — there's a staircase of over 100 steps down to the sand, which keeps the crowds thinner and gives the place a genuinely unspoilt feel. It's a favourite with locals who know what they're doing, so expect good company and a quieter stretch of coastline.
