About this place

Għajn Tuffieħa Bay, also known as Riviera Beach, is one of Malta’s most scenic beaches. The bay is surrounded by natural cliffs and countryside, giving it a quieter and more unspoilt feel than some of Malta’s larger beaches. Its golden-red sand and clear Mediterranean water make it popular for swimming, sunbathing and watching the sunset. Visitors should be aware that access involves a long flight of steps down to the beach.
Please note: The beach is reached by many steps. Sea conditions can change, so follow safety flags and local advice.
