“The easiest way to understand Comino, Gozo and the northern bays.”

Red Tower works like a 3D map: from one place you see why Malta's north mattered strategically.
The tower watched the northern approach and now gives one of the clearest views towards Comino, Gozo and Mellieħa.
Add it before Comino or the western beaches. A short stop is enough, but light matters.
Wind can be strong and parking limited. Avoid the hottest middle of the day.
Small time cost, big orientation value.
