About Għar Lapsi

Għar Lapsi is a sheltered inlet below the Siġġiewi countryside, loved by swimmers and divers for its clear, calm water. Two Weeks in August used a seafront taverna here for the group's tense dinners. Reports say the real taverna was destroyed by Storm Harry in January 2026, so what you see now may differ from the series.

Best time to go

Morning swim in summer, when the water is calm.
