Mellieha Bay Malta
Home To Malta's Largest Bay
Mellieħa is a village located in the Northwest part of Malta.
Mellieħa Bay is the island's largest sand beach located downhill from Mellieha. This beach is known to locals as Għadira. The bay has always drawn locals, as the water remains shallow for a considerable distance from the shore, so it is perfect for families with small children.
