About Wardija
The Wardija ridge spans from Ghajn Tuffieha to St. Paul's Bay and is the residential preserve of the upper-class Maltese. It is sparsely populated and an excellent place to walk around. The scenery is panoramic. The small rural village which is a treasure of serenity on the north western hillside of the tiny hamlet of Wardija, which in itself is one of Malta’s best kept secrets, offers generous spacious living for couples, families and groups of friends in a warm relaxing holiday atmosphere. Here one can unwind and be totally at ease with nature like nowhere else. Built in attractive local limestone with a charm all of its own, the Wardija Hilltop Village enjoys commanding and spectacular views of the picturesque green valley beneath and the blue Mediterranean sea on both sides of the Island beyond. The panoramic view of the Island of St Paul, where the saint was shipwrecked en route to Rome in 0058 AD lies to the north east of Malta whilst to the north west, the vista is of open seas with the Calypso Isle of Gozo in the distance.

ST. PAUL'S BAY - At the turn of the century, St Paul's Bay was a small fishing village, but in the last 20 years it has grown into a major tourist center.

About Malta

The Maltese Islands offer an exhilarating contrast of colours: the azure of the Mediterranean, the mellow honey-coloured limestone which characterises the architecture, and clear skies. more
