Significantly greener than Malta, Gozo’s landscape is far less developed too, giving the Island an air of tranquillity. Farms and open fields abound, and much of the Island’s coast, except for the more popular bays such as Marsalform, is still undeveloped.

However, Gozo’s most notable physical features are its hills – in fact, its official emblem features 3 such hills over the sea. The prominent peaks rise and form distinct landmarks visible from miles away, with the highest being Ta’ Dbiegi hill (with a height of 190 meters) near the village of San Lawrenz.

Like Malta, the Mediterranean landscape of Gozo is formed primarily of limestone deposits. In fact, limestone is the prime building material used in Gozitan construction, lending the urban landscape a rich, honey-coloured hue. The limestone landscape also provides for interesting formations.

The coastline features numerous bays and inlets, both sandy and rocky. The largest sandy beach on the island is Ramla il-Hamra, which features ochre coloured sand and the Island’s most impressive collection of sand dunes which play host to a small number of beautiful, yet hardy specimens of flora, most notably is the white Sea Daffodil.
