Storm Waves Over Cirkewwa South Pier

Powerful waves washing over the south pier of the Cirkewwa ferry terminal during strong winds in Malta.

Strong winds drive heavy Mediterranean waves against the exposed coastline of Cirkewwa in northern Malta. Large waves break directly over the south pier of the ferry terminal, sending water across the structure and back into the sea. The scene illustrates the power of stormy weather along Malta’s northern coast, where rough seas and strong winds frequently batter the harbour area.
