Valletta
The capital of Malta is inextricably linked to the history of the military and charitable Order of St John of Jerusalem. It was ruled successively by the Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs and the Order of the Knights of St John. Valletta’s 320 monuments, all within an area of 55 ha, make it one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world.
We suggest you visit these places:
- St Johns Cathedral church and the museum,
- Upper Barrakka Gardens (visit in the morning and in the evening for a spectacular view!),
- Lower Barrakka Gardens, the area around Victoria Gate,
- Fort St Elmo,
- St George's Square,
- the Palace Armoury and the Palace State Rooms.
Gozo and Comino
Gozo means joy and a visit to this relaxed little sister island of Malta should bring exactly that.
The people of Gozo, numbering at 31,592, have nurtured Calypso’s Island into the beautiful place we know today. Based on the values of sustainability and the need to protect the natural environment, the Government of Malta has embarked on an ambitious yet achievable vision of Gozo as an eco-island.
The 3 Cities
Vittoriosa, Senglea and Cospicua, known as the Three Cities of Malta, are pieces of living history kept alive by hundreds of years of preservation, and the occasional miracle. The fortified cities sit like a trio of villages in the heart of Malta's historic centre, directly across the Grand Harbour from Valletta.
You can take the ferry boat from Valletta to visit the 3 Cities.
Mdina and Rabat
Mdina is our old capital city, known as the silent city. Its really nice and some sights are really nice. Stop for a coffee at Fontanella to see the views and then walk to Crystal Palace Bar in Rabat to taste (probably) the best Pastizzi (cheese cakes) in Malta.
Dingli Cliffs and Buskett Gardens are close by and worth a visit if you have time.
Sliema and St. Julians
Dotted with charming cafes, and a quirky melange of old and new shops, Sliema is a bustling town that oozes local charm. Another thing that makes this vibrant locality so appealing however, is that no matter where you happen to be, you’re never more than a few minutes from the sea!
You can take the ferry boat from Valletta to visit Sliema and St Julians.
The North and Beaches!
Ghajn Tuffieha Beach (also known as Golden Bay or Apple's Eye) - Its on of our nicest beaches. The sand colour is golden thus we call it Golden Bay. Its nice in the morning and also in the evening as the sun sets exactly in the middle of the bay.
Mellieha and Mellieha Bay are nice too. If you have time visit Popeye Village as well.
Marsaxlokk
Try to visit Marsaxlokk on Sunday morning. Marsaxlokk is a fishing village and on Sunday there is a a fish and flee market.
The small and picturesque fishing village of Marsaxlokk (pronounced marsa-schlock – meaning Southern Port) is located in the South Eastern part of Malta.
The 3 Villages
Lija, Balzan and Attard are known as the 3 villages.
Walking the streets of these villages one gets the impression of going back in time, with the well-kept alleys, the restored noble palaces, and the beautiful parish churches and other interesting features.
