Munxar - Gozo

The village of Munxar is surrounded by the village of Sannat, Victoria (the capital of Gozo), and Xlendi bay. The village parish is dedicated to St Paul the Apostle. There are endless footpaths along the south west countryside of this tiny village.

Munxar, with its idyllic coastal resort of Xlendi, seems to be nature's experimental grounds. The name, an Arabic word meaning 'bucksaw', describes the rock formations of luscious Wied ix-Xlendi, an impressive gorge carved by a double watercourse that slopes down from the village to the Mediterranean. A picture of a bucksaw dominates the village's traditional emblem. Its motto - parvulus sed munitus (small but secure) recognizes the fact that it is a village of only 500 people.
