[@anngerrish5842]

What a lovely walk in the evening sunshine. We got the water taxi/boat trip from Marsaxlokk, got off by the pier that they are pulling down and walked to just bu Bordas - will definitely have fish & chips there next time

Great video Steve, don't know how cold the water was for those swimmers! Would love to have seen what was on the end of that heavy chain going into the sea, hidden treasure maybe! Thanks Steve, another lovely, interesting walk.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

You and me both! next time Ill pull it see what happens

[@gaynor3976]

Great video Steve I use to live there back in the late 70s. It looks so different now much bigger beach. My parents lived here for many years and we still have friends there.many fond memories of spear fishing and fishing with a bamboo rod.i used to hunt octopus with a hand line by the polo pool.A big hello to hazel who still lives there and daughters Sam and Nicky take care love from Wayne-James-Trudi -Lisa 👍

Thank you for the beautiful afternoon stroll Steve 🚶🏼🌊☀️🎣🛥🏖 I’m a bit late watching your videos this past week as it’s half term so I’m busy entertaining my little girl 🥰 I’ve said many times how much we love Birzebbuga. And contrary to what many others have said I actually think that the Freeport adds to its charm! I love to sit on the beach and watch the ships coming and going 🥰🚢🛳🛥

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

No worries Rachel ..Always lovely to see your comments anytime, yes its always nice and so different to other beaches ..And 100s agree with you cuz summer it's packed

[@suzanneaxiak2711]

Hi Steve what a nice walk pretty bay looks very nice

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thanks 👍 Yes but summer very busy

[@doloresblenkinship236]

Spent so much time in Pretty bay in my youth and now when we come on holiday ,sad to see the place empty .

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Fingers crossed things pack to normal soon !!

[@gorannoren4689]

Beautiful tour along the seaside of Birżebbuġa. It made my day, just to see the start of the tour, at Water´s Edge Hotel. Been staying there so many times. Also very depressing to see everything is closed down. Should be so full of life. Big compliments for your effort, to show everyone this gem of a country.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes sad days ,..Next monday maybe something's start opening up

[@paulmadden7426]

Hi Steve. Good video mate .Lovely area for a stroll .Like you say bet its busy in the summer.Hope I've spelt summer right we never get it .Ha ha .Hopefully next time in Malta will visit there good one steve keep them coming. 👍👍

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Yes the south as so much to offer and B'bugia is very interesting place with lots of history ...You never know you might get a summer this year ....

[@doloresfarge-bennett2519]

Hello Steve this time my comment is for the right area 😅😅 wow very spectacular I absolutely love the huge boulders and and the most beautiful Malta shimmering blue sea with the ships across the water I love birzebbuga just stunning place 😄💙⚘ my girls are counting the days when we can come over but still got to wait for when it's safe I pray this covid goes away Steve keep your Maltese jokes up I love hearing you speak Maltese it sounds cute take care Steve sweety stay safe and always happy Xxxx 💕🤗💜⚘😘❣

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Yes, thank you

[@terrywalker348]

Another great one Steve. There is a website called 'Skyline Webcams'. Click on Malta and it brings up lots of cameras that are LIVE all around Malta. One of them is placed on top of the block of flats above the fish and chip shop that Rose and Steve had a meal. The camera looks across the bay over to the water polo pitch and there is one the other side looking back. A Maltese lady friend of mine in the UK goes on some of the church services. She hasn't been able to get back to St Venera to see her family or go to the local church for mass so Marie loves the website.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

hey Terry ..yes I know about Skyline Webcams but personally I think Englishman's channel much better ...lol 😂

[@terrywalker348]

@@EnglishmaninMalta I must agree with you there Steve. Always enjoy the videos. Out of season I used to stop with friends at St Venera for a week or so and we were always out exploring places. A little bit like you do. We came across an outside church one day, I will put the photos up, maybe perhaps you can tell me where it was. I cant remember. Take care Steve.

[@josephattard9250]

Great videos keep up your walks

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thanks, will do! it's a interesting place

[@bonzofotheringham8225]

Evening Steve. Nice to see the bit of Birzebbugia I'm most familiar with - the bars and restaurants facing the beach at the start and sad to see them doing no trade. I do enjoy hanging out round there with a beer and some lunch, although Bordas will get my trade next time. Perhaps had you hauled on the big chain, you'd have pulled the plug out of the Med. Look forward to pt 3.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

😂😂😂😂 Now why did I not think of that joke would have been a nice joke on video ..

[@johnembery7801]

Another great video, we like Birzebbuga always spend a little time there, it's not changed to much over the years. Definitely having fish and chips next time we are over, fingers crossed later in the year, Thanks Steve good work.👍👍

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thanks for watching! John , Your really should very nice and lovely family

[@joeminuti7629]

Borda’s - Best Fish and Chips ever. Used to go there a lot in the late 60’s when it first opened in the old place, next to Bordas Bar run by Sunny.

[@rosemariestolk979]

Sunny is closed now unfortunately and a Turkish restaurant opened which is also very good. It got a good reputation.

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

It's a great place go and tell them englishman sent you !! lovely fish and chips

[@maximilliancamilleri7907]

For a suggestion for part 3 maybe you could walk in the center of birzebbuga and go around the village itself though that’s just my idea

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Thanks Max Was One of my Ideas I had was waiting maybe when the churches open That would complete it ?

Winner

Thanks

[@emanuelfarrugia4821]

Hi Steve, thanks for the video, I look forward to part 3 which will include the parish church as I never been able to look inside it as I always found it closed the times I've been over there, hopefully you go at Festa's time as usually would be decorated, and what a co-incident you managed to make a video of the Queen & Prince Philip's villa at their time in Malta, and a few days later, the Queen's Husband passes away, in which I'm sorry about his passing, he's been a part in my childhood and part of Malta's history too, bye 4 now Steve C U next video.

Nice.... on my last day in Malta before flying to Medjugorje, in August 2019, I walked that same route.... I had rabbit stew around the corner from that cafe/restaurant you pointed out at the start.... It looks eerie, so quiet and deserted like this and when everybody wearing masks and all those police around..... looking forward to part 3 Steve..... take care and God bless you 😇⛪🙏😇

Sounds great! Sad now all takeaways ....Be waiting Part 3 for the churches to open and finish there

steve you could not of done that in the 70s as u would have to swim loll but its is now a nice beach hope to get back their soon

@@EnglishmaninMalta well Thier was not a beach where you were walking just the sea and small fishing boat before they build the new swimming pool . The beach as it's now is man made in the late 80s when they were building the Freeport and use the sand from dredging

It can be arranged but probably difficult more during COVID times.

Steve, our son Johnny is a musician he has a song on soundcloud which would be great on your videos. Soundcloud Island city, hidden little island. Give it a listen, see what you think. Our friends Joe and Elaine have the Travellers Bar in Bugibba, they flew Johnny over to play on the 5th anniversary of their bar a while back. These videos make us want to return to Malta so much. Last year was only the 2nd time since 1997 we have not visited out own 'hidden little island'

[@EnglishmaninMalta]

Send me a link over of he's song Soundcloud on FB

Another lovely video. Steve shows us the good and the bad. Beautiful bay. Shame about the ugly over-development and shipyard. Don't understand why masks are required outdoors. Tourists won't come to visit a police state
