Did a long trek to reach this place. Until a certain hour it’s packed with tourists and people, so not very enjoyable, yet there is still a lot to see for those who like to walk and explore and not only to arrive, take a pic and leave. After a mandatory 15min boat ride(4€) under /in the middle of giant rocks to see where one the now collapsed “window” stood, you can reach the cliffs and go exploring the coast left(nobody does), or reach the famous blue hole right. (Wear proper shoes as especially during the high tide there is a wet and sharp cliff to be done.)
U will be rewarded by a beautiful tiny spot where to jump into the blue hole or simply sunbathe on the flat stones.
I camped on the short flat stones and the view early morning were breathtaking.
Please remember not to litter 🙏

It was a lovely day, you can swim in the water and take boat tours. We went around the whole island with a taxi for a very good price, Maria Lourdes Formosa brought us everywhere safely and told us interesting things about the location and local customs. Very recommendable! (You can reach her on +356 9942 9274).

Despite the window having colapased a few years ago we had a enjoyable boat trip seeing a face and cocadile in the rocks face. And coral in the caves. Our boat man stoped randomly in the middle of the sea to take payment. Would he hav thrown us over board if we refused to pay we wondered. Was weird he didn’t take money b4 setting if it at end of trip. We had to wear life jackets.

This was obviously a very popular boat trip when this rock feature existed but it’s gone since 2017. Nevertheless it’s an exciting little boat trip through the cliffs from the ‘inner sea’ to the outer. Into a couple of caves and views of the big limestone cliffs. It’s only €4 each and takes about half an hour included queuing.

It is sad that the window was destroyed by a huge storm a couple of years ago. It is still worth a visit for several reasons. The Blue Hole, in the foreground of your picture, is a popular diving, swimming and snorkelling site. The site was used in Game of Thrones so fans may be interested. The Dwejra inland sea is adjacent and is linked to the open sea via a small arch in the high cliff and is also popular for swimming, snorkelling and diving. The sunsets are lovely and can be preceded by a sundowner at one of the cafes, or just stop there for lunch or dinner.
Although the Azure window is no more, just round the coast to the north is the Wied il-Mielah window. Not quite on the same scale and off the beaten track so hard to find.

There isnt a window currently, the rock frame that made the window frame look, was destroyed by storm a couple years ago. Nonetheless if you , like me, didnt get to experience it before, you will not miss it. This entire area is still quite beautiful. However from previous pictures, I'm sure it added much beauty and relevance to this location where the Game of Thrones was filmed.
It's a sure must-visit.

This is still a very beautiful place with such a sad story. I didn’t know it until my jeep tour, as it wasn’t really on my list of places to visit. The little boat will take you on a ride all around the cliffs for just 4€. It’s really breathtaking and definitely worth taking that boat ride.

The Azure window has fallen down on 8th March 2017 but the area is still worth a visit. Experience the inland sea and General's Rock. Also, be aware that during the night the place is kept in total darkness on purpose. One can experience the night sky without any light pollution.

The blue window is no longer there above the sea, we saw it in the water. Take your snorkel, rock shoes and fins and be prepared for the strong current. We visited the blue hole, which is in front of where the window used to be. The setting is beautiful but there’s not a lot of sea life if you are snorkelling. All the divers are going here so be prepared for lots of air bubbles. A short hike over the rocks and across the car park you can walk down to swim across to the caves.

What an eatery!
Extensive menu. Every meal we ordered between the five of us was just excellent. Great portions also.
We went on a Tuesday evening. It was really quiet as it’s still out of season. The chef and owner and the staff were just fantastic. Virtually kept the place open just for us.
Fantastic value. I would highly recommend. Probably the best food we had during our entire stay!
It was dark but I suspect the views are pretty special also.
Thank you.

Bonjour,
Je compte comme vous m' y rendre de bonne heure le matin . Il faut prendre le Ferry je suppose mais après ? Une personne parle d' un bus toutes les heures ? Public ? Privé ? Au port ? Tarif ? Est-ce ainsi que vous vous y êtes rendu ?
Merci d' avance de votre réponse .
Cordialement

Hi
Can someone please let me know from where you can get boat to Azure Window??and how long the boat trip takes??
Many thanks

Walk away from the window/water and across the parking lot. There is a small path that leads down to a lagoon with docks. You catch the boat off those docks. They do not usually start the tour until the boat is full or almost full, so if you are the first one to arrive to a boat, be prepared to wait patiently. As I recall, it was about 4 euros/person for the trip (summer 2016) ... and worth every cent!
