A ferry ride to the island of Gozo, the second largest island in the Maltese archipelago. Sea views near the harbor, followed by a visit to the town of Xaghra, and Ggantija, a megalithic temple structure that dates back 5,600 years (earlier than either the pyramids or Stonehenge.) Followed by a visit to the hilltop fortress, the Citadel. Current structure dates to the 16th Century, but there is evidence of human settlements from pre-historic times.
