About Malta

Malta, a sun-soaked island group nestled between Sicily and North Africa, is famed for its mild winters and stunning attractions. The Blue Lagoon offers crystal-clear waters ideal for snorkelling and diving, while history enthusiasts can explore the 5,000-year-old Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum catacombs.

For unique souvenirs, discover traditional Maltese crafts such as basketware and lace. In Valletta, shop along bustling Merchants and Republic Streets, or visit Bay Street Mall in St Julian’s for designer boutiques. Local markets are perfect for sampling mouth-watering delicacies. Malta’s rich history is reflected in its cuisine, featuring dishes like rabbit stew and fish pie. Enhance your experience by joining a food tour or exploring a local vineyard.

The island is alive with festivals year-round, from spectacular fireworks in April celebrating EU membership to the vibrant summer jazz festival. With its mix of culture, cuisine, and celebrations, there’s always something exciting happening in Malta!
