Venue
Pretty Bay, Birzebbuga, Malta
Birżebbuġa is a picturesque seaside town located in the southern part of Malta, offering a more laid-back and authentic Maltese experience, compared to the bustling northern areas.
The town is home to Pretty Bay, a popular sandy beach that attracts both locals and tourists, which will be our playground for the entire weekend.
Like the rest of the island, Birzebbuga is also rich in history, with nearby archaeological sites like the Ghar Dalam cave, which dates back to prehistoric times!
