Il-Kalanka

Il-Kalanka is a beautiful and spacious beach located in Malta. It is often compared to St. Peter's Pool, but is noted for having fewer tourists and more options for shade along the rock edge. The beach is surrounded by cliffs on both sides, providing reasonable shade for visitors. The natural characteristics of Il-Kalanka make it a popular spot for diving, especially on sunny days when the water is still. The water at Il-Kalanka is described as perfect and warm, with no sightings of jellyfish reported. Il-Kalanka is equipped with a large parking area at the top, making it easy for visitors to park their vehicles. Some visitors have noted that the road leading to the beach is larger and in better condition than expected, contrary to what is shown on Google Maps' street view. Despite its beauty and amenities, Il-Kalanka is not typically crowded. Visitors have described the beach as cozy, relaxed, and quiet. There is a small shack on the beach where drinks are sometimes sold, but it is not always operational, so visitors are advised to bring their own drinks.
