Pepe Nero @ Jessie's Bar
Good food and the kids can play at the swings. You can eat while you watch them play. It is a very good place for families with small kids. Even good when it rains because it has an indoor dining area.

Fantastic view point. If you go to Mystique you could carry on walking until you reach it. Will take you a further 45 minutes to reach it. Total walking duration to go back will then be 1hr10min. You can also watch a lovely sunset from here.

Lovely beach to relax. Its best to go very early morning or late afternoon as in between maybe overcrowded with people. To avoid crowds you may opt to chill at Andrews Bar and get yourself a traditional Maltese Ftira and a local CISK lager beer.
