Dwejra Tower | Malta Photo Spot

This small watchtower has been looking out over Dwejra Bay for over 350 years. It was built on the high grounds overlooking the surrounding area to guard this strategic location very prone to pirate landings many hundred years ago. After 1746, the tower was used to guard the Fungus Rock and it had or supposed to have medicinal fungus that grew on it to cure the sick. The tower is both photogenic and is surrounded by photogenic views, plus its a great spot to experiment with astrophotography. (Dwejra, Gozo, Malta)
