Daħlet Qorrot is a small, sheltered rocky bay on Gozo's east coast, near the village of Nadur. The bay has a small pebble beach, a row of traditional boathouses (lamps) cut into the rock, and clear, calm water that makes it a good swimming and snorkelling spot when the more exposed north coast beaches are rough.
The bay is quieter and less developed than the main tourist beaches, popular with locals for a relaxed day by the sea. There are no facilities beyond the boathouses — visitors should bring everything they need. The surrounding coast offers pleasant walking, with views across to Comino and Malta.
