Il-Bajja taċ-Ċirkewwa

This anchorage sits at the northernmost tip of Malta, right next to the busy Ċirkewwa Ferry Terminal where boats shuttle across to Gozo. Drop the hook here and you're perfectly placed to watch the ferries come and go, with the rugged Mellieħa coastline stretching out around you. It's a lively, working corner of Malta — not secluded, but full of character and a solid base for exploring the channel between the two islands.
