The town of Mġarr grew up around the shallow harbour which shares its name. Ferry services to Malta were in operation by 1241, and fishing was already established. While the area around the harbour was developed over the following centuries, there was little development of the harbour itself until 1841, when a breakwater was constructed to provide more shelter to the port. This breakwater was strengthened and extended several times up to 1906. A larger breakwater was constructed between 1929 and 1935, and two more in 1969; on the completion of the latter, the area of the port was expanded to 121,400 square metres.

"If you are looking for a property with character, and a perfect host, stop reading and reserve the property. Malta is about history and atmosphere. This property is steps from one of the largest and historic forts in the Med. You can walk in minutes to either bay surronding the city. One side of this property is on Republic Street which passes through the middle of the city. It is priced resonably and the hosts are friendly and helpful. It is clean and eludes character. Highly reccomend!!!!!"

"Relaxing One-Night Stay We stayed at Xemxija Bay Hotel for one night and really enjoyed it. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a lovely pool view, which made it feel even more relaxing. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. The hotel is in a peaceful area but still close to local restaurants and scenic walks. A great spot for a short getaway—would happily return!"
