Xlendi Bay and Cliffs

Highlight • Beach

Wonderful nature hike. Because of the lighting on the cliffs, best in the afternoon with proper sun protection. Unfortunately, the many huts used by the bird hunters and the sophisticated bird trapping facilities are depressing.

Xlendi Salt Pans

Highlight • Structure

If you follow the coastal path behind Xlendi to the east, you will pass the salt pans. These are probably no longer used, in contrast to those in Masalforn. Some of them are still in operation for folklore reasons.

Globigerina Limestone Rock Formations

Highlight • Natural Monument

The surf has eroded and smoothed the globigerin rocks into bizarre formations. Enclosed in the limestone you can see many shells and sand dollars.
