Għajn Tuffieħa forms part of the Manikata village in Malta which is part of the Mellieħa Local Council.
Close to Għajn Tuffieħa, three bays are located with popular beaches among tourists. The beach are separated by natural rock formations and therefore each have their own characteristics.
Għajn Tuffieħa Bay is a red beach a short distance south of Golden Bay. It is quieter than Golden Bay and often visited by the Maltese themselves, as well as tourist visitors. In order to reach this beach one needs to descend a hill on a staircase of 200 steps. On top of the cliffs west of Għajn Tuffieħa bay there is an old defense tower built in 1637. It is one of the seven towers built by Grand Master Giovanni Paolo Lascaris, of the Knights Hospitaller.
