The beach is very small, but the surrounding area is beautiful and offers particularly pleasant views from the hill above. The parking lots were crowded on a Sunday in June, but we found street parking at the top.

Xlendi beach is a sheltered cove offering excellent swimming opportunities, with steps easily accessible from the rocky outcrops. The beach is limited for young children due to its size and rocky terrain. Despite the construction of more high-rise buildings above, the town retains its charm.

A beautiful little bay that can be used as a base for exploring the nearby cliffs and caves. It's easily accessible by bus from Victoria. There are plenty of restaurants and ice cream vendors along the bay. It's a beautiful, quiet beach.
