White Rocks, otherwise known as the ghost complex of the Maltese Islands, is a derelict spot surrounded by stunning views of the Mediterranean and the Maltese coastline, with greenery and shrubs everywhere you look. The building is now abandoned and has been damaged due to natural causes and vandalism.
History:
The White Rocks Complex in Pembroke was built by British Forces in the 1960s. Back then, the area was known as the St Patrick’s Officers Married Quarters and was used for accommodation purposes. When the military personnel left Malta, White Rocks was handed over to the government and was gradually converted into a holiday complex. In 1995, it became a prime location for accommodation housing language students studying in Malta during the summer months
