Un mar amagat / Hidden little sea - a photo on Flickriver

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

Aquest lloc és força unic, com a mínim per al Mediterrani, crec. Un petit mar conectat per un tunel natural de roca amb el "mar exterior", es a dir, la resta del Mediterrani. Es troba al extrem oest de l'illa de Gozo, a Malta. En maltès es coneix com il-Qawra (o també id-Dwejra).

Per la part de dins, com podeu veure, hi ha una platjeta de codols així com embarcadors i cases de pescadors. Es pot agafar una barca, com varem fer nosaltres, i travessar el tunel fins a mar obert. El tunel deu tenir uns 50 metres de llarg, i amb prou feines i passa una barca. Per la part de mar obert, tot son estimbats inaccessibles a banda i banda.

==============================

This place is quite unique, at least for the Mediterranean Sea, I think. A small sea connected by a natural rock tunnel to the "outer sea", that is, the rest of the Mediterranean. It is located at the western end of the island of Gozo, in Malta. In Maltese it is known as il-Qawra (or also id-Dwejra).

On the land side, as you can see, there is a small pebble beach as well as piers and fishermen's houses. You can take a boat, as we did, and cross the tunnel to the open sea. The tunnel must be about 50 meters long, and a boat can barely pass through. On the open sea side, it is all inaccessible cliffs on both sides.
