A coastal town in the far south beside Pretty Bay, living alongside the freeport that dominates the skyline across the water. Birzebbuga is cheap, has a sandy beach, and asks you to accept an industrial neighbour.
The lifestyle
Birzebbuga is an ordinary Maltese coastal town with an extraordinary view across the bay: the container terminal, lit at night and working around the clock. Residents differ on how much this matters, and it is the single thing worth seeing for yourself before committing. Noise and light from the port reach parts of the town. Away from that, it is quiet, cheap and has a beach. The commute north is long.
Property in Birzebbuga
Apartments and maisonettes, largely modern and generally larger than equivalent rents buy further north. Sea-view flats are cheap by Maltese standards, though the view is what it is. Condition is mixed. Both furnished and unfurnished lets are available. Supply is reasonable and prices are low.
