During the day the big BLUE is a hive of activity with hundreds of sun worshipers pouring in and out of the beach bar. This Lido is a large fun area with shaded lounging space and various attractions both culinary and physical. It is a personalised space providing a fully stocked beach bar in the most idyllic of locations with outstanding service which the owners, Andre and Gordon, have strived to keep completely relaxed and fun. They have endeavoured to create an environment that allows you to simply relax and effortlessly enjoy the comfort, beauty and pleasure of the surrounding views of the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea. 

"At the big BLUE we start the morning off with freshly ground coffee and freshly squeezed juices. Then we offer a variety of tempting breakfasts followed by refreshing cocktails and then we are into lunch! At this point you can choose to hang out with us and pick from a wide array of beach snacks or head upstairs to our award winning Cujini Restaurant, either way you will be spoilt. By the way, we also have the best ice creams on the island .... and the coldest beer!".......... "Oh, and sound activated toilets ... very hi-tech! =:O)"

The Lido’s various facilities include sunbed hire, showers, changing rooms, jet skiing, scuba diving, sailing, canoeing but overall we are experts in the fine art of chilling out on the beach. Pop over and see the positive comments left on the walls and rafters by happy tourists and locals alike who have inevitably become part of the big BLUE family. It is a real meeting place for the young and young at heart, where friends meet and chat over cold drinks, fresh snacks, various mouth-watering ice-creams and the famous ‘Illy’ branded Iced-Coffee which is the rage at the moment. Chilled music creates a cool and relaxed atmosphere amidst the colourful and continuous bustle, making it the place to be when spending a day or even just an afternoon in the brilliant waters of Ghadira Bay, Mellieha.
