Situated in the west of Gozo, in the locality of Dwejra, this medium size fresh water rock pool was formed over millions of years from an over-cliff valley, similar to a spring. this is the lowest fresh water rock pool in altitude in Gozo. this is also the first place in Gozo where the violet drop-wing dragonfly was spotted. The name 'Qattara' refers to the fact that water continuously trickles from the over-cliff valley to this pond.
