Gozo
Gozo, Malta's slower paced neighboring island, is said to be the home of Calypso, who lured Odysseus there and kept him captive in her cave for seven years. Gozo has lovely beaches, Mediterranean ruins and a peaceful ambience ideal for quiet getaways. Arrive here by ferry boat or helicopter from Malta.
