Wardija is a hamlet in St. Paul's Bay, Malta. Its name is corrupted from the Sicilian or Italian word guardia, meaning 'to watch'. Although the name of the hamlet has Arabic lexicons, it was probably named later when Maltese, then an Arabic dialect, remained a dominant language. The hamlet is borded by Bidnija, Bugibba, San Martin and Pwales. Several archeological remains are found in the whereabouts, proving that it was inhabited in pre-history and the Roman period, and it has always been mainly a rural village.

A number of knights and noble families built their country residences, originally to be used for hunting and retreats. A number of 19th and 20th-century structures were also erected in the area. Some houses are still owned by the descendants of the original builders, while others are now used for multiple purposes such as private homes, commercial accommodations, events, and weddings receptions.
