The name of this bay litterally
means "Red beach". Although secluded, ix-Xatt l-Ahmar
lies within the sights of the guard post of Fort Chambray and is
accessible through a narrow road winding from the village of Ghajnsielem.
A small number of boat houses shelter some fishermen's boats during
the winter.
The bay is ideal both for swimming and for diving. The wreck of
the once Malta-Gozo Ferryboat "Xlendi" lies in the depths
of this location, making the bay an excellent dive-site.
