I also found some further info on visitmalta site, interesting:<br /><br />Mistra Bay is a pebble beach between Xemxija Bay and Selmun. Mistra, like Xemxija, has a long history of sequent occupation that goes back to the Phoenicians and Roman rule. It has a number of caves in the area that were used as burial places. Others were used for refuge, shelter and to monitor the bay . A natural depression on one side of the bay now shelters different plant species. The military battery built by the knights, visible at the edge of the cliff, is now being used for Aquaculture. Fish farming pens are present at the outer part of the bay.marcosfwnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34533174.post-63056453482034783052007-09-22T12:57:00.000+02:002007-09-22T12:57:00.000+02:00Nice photos amid a bit of history.
