Mgarr ix-Xini is a beautiful inlet with a rich historical background. This secluded bay served as an occasional refuge for the galleys of the Knights of St. John and, in 1551, was used by invading Turkish forces to load captive Gozitans onto their ships during the island's most devastating raid. Overlooking the entrance to this inlet is a watchtower constructed by the Knights in 1661, which still stands guard today. This historical tower is managed by volunteers from Wirt Għawdex and is open on select days. The tower offers a glimpse into the past and stunning views of the bay and surrounding landscape. A recently renovated path, which is both delightful and scenic, connects the bay to the watchtower, making for an enjoyable walk.
