Marsalforn Bay will be enclosed by two breakwater arms, according to a design selected by the Gozo Ministry.
The design was unveiled by the minister, Justyne Caruana, who said that her ministry is also planning to upgrade the promenade.
The plans also provide for an extension of the small sandy beach.
The road from Victoria to Marsalforn will also be rebuilt.
Marsalforn is exposed to rough seas from the North East. A breakwater at the outer end of the North side of the bay was destroyed by the sea several years ago.
The selected design for the breakwaters still has to be submitted to the Planning Authority for its evaluation.
