Do you want to visit Malta for your next trip? Great choice!
A small archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea, between Sicily, Greece and North Africa, made up of seven islands, however, only three are inhabited: Malta, Gozo and Comino. Malta, being the largest and most popular of all the islands, is where the Malta International Airport is situated. The Maltese Islands benefit from an average of 300 days of sun every year, this means you can take advantage of the island’s all year round. Spring, early summer and the end of the summer, April, May, June and September are the best time to visit Malta. The weather is not extremely hot and there are less tourists around.
I visited the beautiful islands of Malta and Comino in summer 2019, with few friends for three fantastic days. We were based ten minutes’ walk from Balluta Bay, in St Julian’s, the position was perfect, we could walk easily everywhere in the area. When you walk around Malta you will see a mixture of Medieval, Baroque and Victorian buildings and beautiful churches, Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel between St Julian and Silema is very nice, a beautiful church in the middle of the bay.
One of my favourite place of Malta is Café Del Mar, the sunset by the pool is one of the most beautiful view you will ever see. Another stop to do in island of Malta is Popeye Village, is located in the North-Western part of Malta, close to Mellieha. This village was entirely built for the set of the movie “Popeye”, shot in 1980. To build this set, trees were imported from Canada to build the houses, once the shooting was over, they decided to keep everything intact and now, it’s a theme park.
Maltese beaches are for every type of swimmer, you can find nice sandy beaches and fantastic rocky shores all around the islands.
