Malta’s Cliffhanger: Dingli!

Where the sky and sea meet

Dingli cliffs are located off the village of Dingli, on Malta’s Western coast. They are located about three kilometres south of the city of Rabat. Malta’s highest natural point can be found here, since the highest peak towers 253 metres above sea-level. The coastal walkway over the tops is one of the most beautiful on the island and is not without reason called Triq Panoramika. 

From the tops, one has magnificent views over the Mediterranean Sea.

The cliffs are one of those places that have the view one normally finds on a postcard. The view is magnificent from the top, with the uninhabited island of Fifla located on the horizon. But from the water, when taking a cruise of example, the view is even more special, with the cliffs arising with all their might.

Sunset on Dingli

There is a tiny chapel dedicated to St. Mary Madgalene located on the edge of the cliffs, marking the highest point on the Maltese Islands.

The cliffs extend well beyond Dingli village; they stretch all the way from Bahrija while to the Munqar area above Blue Grotto.

At Dingli cliffs you can enjoy hours of walking or relaxation. The views are particularly attractive during sunset time, especially in the calm summer days.
