Birzebbuga is situated on Pretty Bay, in the south-east of the island.
But there are in addition to the goddesses in the museum in Valletta smaller stones carved into phallic shapes, and these, in a religion based on fertility, suggest that the ancient inhabitants understood clearly enough the role of the phallus in the sacred as well as the profane connections in human life.
The Phoenicians, those master sailors and successful merchants of the ancient Mediterranean world, first settled here at Marsaxlokk, instead of the superior Grand Harbour at Valletta, because Marsaxlokk was the first good harbour they encountered on their journey north from the Phoenician settlement at Carthage.

The village of Birzebbuga lies in the South East of the coast of Malta.
The name of the village probably originated from the word 'Bur' which means field and from the other word 'zebbuga' which means olives.
This cave is a veritable depository of semi-fossilized remains and extinct species such as dwarf elephants and hippopotami which roamed the island some 250,000 years ago, ostensibly when it was still part of the Africa land mass.

 Clean-up of Birzebbuga Waterpolo Pitch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
In its efforts to re-vamp the Waterpolo Club at Birzebbuga, the Committee of the Club organised a clean-up of the pitch.
This initiative was taken since due to sheer vandalism, a lot of rubbish had been dumped in the basin, making the use of the same basin a rather dangerous manoeuvre.
Special thanks have to go to the volunteer divers from the Atlam Sub Acqua Club and the members of the Blue Sea Sport Angling Club (originating from B’Bugia), who physically carried out the cleanup and the various Government Ministries (mentioned earlier) and the Local Council for providing the skips and other rubbish disposal material.
