Getting there

Car

From Ramla Bay, head west on the main road towards Xaghra. Continue straight until you reach the roundabout. At the roundabout, take the second exit onto Triq il-Kanun. Follow this road for about 1.5 km until you reach a sign for Dwejra Tower. Turn right onto the narrow road leading to the tower. There is limited parking available near the tower, so arrive early to secure a spot.

Public Transportation

Take the bus from Ramla Bay to Victoria (the capital city of Gozo). The bus service is operated by Malta Public Transport, and you can find the bus stop near the beach. Once in Victoria, transfer to bus 303 towards Dwejra. The bus ride to Dwejra takes approximately 30 minutes. Get off at the Dwejra stop, and from there, it is a short walk to Dwejra Tower.

Walking

If you prefer to walk, you can start at Ramla Bay and follow the coastline heading west. The walk is scenic but can take approximately 1.5 hours. Follow the path to Dwejra Bay, and once you reach the bay, look for the path leading up to Dwejra Tower, which is situated on a hill offering stunning views.
