Megalithic temples of Ħaġar Qim

You get at Ħaġar Qim where you can explore two archeological sites of extraordinary value.

Prior to your visit, at the visitors centre, you are shown a 3D film describing the museum’s artefacts as well as the story of the sites.
Both are covered by a huge protective dome. They look impressive because of their imposing structure and the spectacular, stark, isolated landscape surrounding them, high up on the cliffs overlooking the sea.

These enormous stone blocks, dating back to 3600 BC (thus older than the Pyramids and Stonehenge) are, it goes without saying, on the UNESCO World Heritage list. A boulder protruding from the ground is said to have brought these wonders to light.

One of the boulders, weghing a good 20 tons, is 3 metres high and 6.40 metres wide.

The Blue Grotto

Once inside the grottoes, you can enjoy the blue seabed – with the help of sunrays, the impact is even more impressive.
At the end of the tour, not far from the departure jetty, there’s plenty of cafés and restaurants with a view.
