About this Beach
A small gap in the promenade wall leads down to one of Sliema's best kept secrets. The steps into the water are worn smooth by generations of local swimmers who have been coming here long before anyone thought to share it online.
Walk north along the Sliema seafront; look for the gap in the wall near Fond Għadir.
Buses to Sliema, then 15-min walk.
