  • The interesting St Agatha tower, also known as The Red Tower, is located close to Mellieha.

    Due to its position, up to the hill, the watchtower can be easily seen from Mellieha but the best views are from the road that leads to Cirkkewa, the harbour to Gozo.

    The tower was build 1649 to guard over Ghajn Tuffiha Bay and Mellieha Bay.

    Opening hours: Monday to Friday 10:00-16:00; Saturday 10:00-13:00.

     What a charming village Mellieha is. I especially like the Mellieha Bay and the Cave Chapel with the icon of the Madonna and Child.
