The town of Mġarr grew up around the shallow harbour which shares its name. Ferry services to Malta were in operation by 1241, and fishing was already established. While the area around the harbour was developed over the following centuries, there was little development of the harbour itself until 1841, when a breakwater was constructed to provide more shelter to the port. This breakwater was strengthened and extended several times up to 1906. A larger breakwater was constructed between 1929 and 1935, and two more in 1969; on the completion of the latter, the area of the port was expanded to 121,400 square metres.

The Westin Dragonara Resort, Malta

5/5 Excellent

"We enjoyed a great week at this hotel. We had a lovely room with a beautiful view and were very well looked after by the housekeeping team. All staff were friendly, approachable and helpful. Various great restaurant and swimming options and breakfasts were a highlight. Paceville as a town was disappointing (area around hotel) unless you are specifically looking for clubs and it was necessary to travel further afield. "
