1 Day In Gozo

Heaven’s door GUESTHOUSE, Fontana

The warmest welcome awaits you (and your pets!) at Heaven’s Door. This gorgeous boutique guesthouse is quirky, arty and authentic and in a prime location between Victoria and Xlendi. We adore the chic vs traditional décor. The owners just love to host and will ensure your memories of Gozo leave a permanent imprint, starting with a serene sleep and breakfast brimming with local produce to kick start your day. A real Gozo gem.

Basilica mozzarella bar, victoria

Introducing this enticing new eatery at the renowned San Gorg Pjazza. As the name implies expect mouth-watering Mozzarella di Bufala, Burrata and Stracciatella. They honour fresh, quality ingredients to create dishes that are simple yet bursting with Mediterranean flavours. Cooking with a brick fire oven and natural rising techniques means perfectly balanced pizza dough. A wonderful addition to the Gozo food scene with great sharing options too.

Ta’Mena ESTATE & EVENTS, XEWKIJA

Enjoy a holiday whilst being at one with nature. Visit the Ta’ Mena estate and experience true Gozitan fare from the roots up. Ta Mena offers traditional Gozitan experiences and you can buy it too from the estate and their Xewkija shop. Choose from the finest cold-pressed olive oil, jams, Gozo honey, cheeses, liqueurs, and wines. You must try their signature Kunserva Helwa (sweet tomato paste). It’s year-round sunshine in a jar! Buying from local farmers also means supporting a sustainable future.

gozo fun – sup experience

Gozo Fun offers eco-friendly SUP and Surf tours and lessons exploring Gozo’s breathtaking coastline and caves. No previous experience is necessary. The awesome team will take you up and close to the most interesting geo-naturalistic spots around Gozo and Comino.

Fun, joy, respect for nature, and the power of the ocean are at the heart of their ethos. We particularly recommend taking their Dwejra sunset tour – magical!

st HOnore Deli, victoria

Sampling something from St Honore is a must on Gozo. It’s not often that a cake tastes even better than it looks but bakery wizard Andrew Xerri hits the bullseye on both accounts.

So much passion goes into each bespoke design to ensure your cake is the perfect complement for any occasion. Life’s too short to say no to cake, especially when cake tastes this good!

Nestled in the heart of Mgarr harbour is the sensational Tmun restaurant. It’s a long-established, family-run establishment that you will not want to miss when you visit Gozo.

Chef Paul has been added to the Michelin Guide and you will see why when you sample his innovative menu. He has certainly set the culinary bar sky high and relentlessly creates stunning dishes with finesse and flair.

Every visit is an utter treat – be sure to book ahead.
