A rocky inlet on the coast south of Birżebbuġa, reached along the coast road and quiet even at the height of summer. The shore is low rock and the water deepens quickly.
Nothing is provided. People come here to swim and then leave, and the freeport traffic passing offshore is part of the view whether you want it or not. The inlet is open from the east-south-east round to the south, so it is a place for a settled day rather than a windy one.
It is sheltered from the south-south-west round to the east. There is no open water on those bearings for a wind to build a swell across. It is open to the east-south-east round to the south, where the sea runs for kilometres before it reaches this shore.
Measured as metres of open water on each bearing out from the shore. This is the bay’s own geography and it does not change; whether it is swimmable this afternoon is the reading at the top of the page, which also weighs how hard the wind is actually blowing.
