Malta : a Mediterranean pearl


Malta has beautiful sound as big as a grain of sand in the middle of the sea, the archipelago hides his game by being a place rich in history and scenery. Why not take advantage of Battle of Malta to take some vacation and to discover all the attractions of this island in the Mediterranean


Sliema, St-Julians is the most "modern" part of the island, refuge of most international companies and expatriates. It is the ideal place for shopping, going out (bars, restaurants, and street Paceville night clubs, Portomaso and the Dragonara Casino, ...).Apart from that, and if the world does not scare you, you can find some beaches (rocks). If you like walking instead we advise you to do the walk of the waterfront from Sliema Ferries until about Portomaso Casino and Spinola Bay.
If you prefer to avoid the same crowd on the sidewalks, then you can do your walk in the other direction, from Sliema still heading this time in Gzira, by simply running along the seafront towards the marina Ta'Xbiex and up to the church square.
Nice little Sunday stroll if you stay on the side of Sliema.

Mdina is a very typical cute little fortified town whose origins date back some 4,000 years. Once past the ramparts by entering through his front door (the right one), you can stroll through its few narrow streets and have fun imagining you can lose yourself (do not worry, the city is so small that it is impossible to happen).
Go all the way to the Tas-Sar place and also enjoy the view of the whole valley and much of Malta by overcast.

Like Valletta, Mdina seems empty of all its souls to the approach of dusk. Perfect ! Take the opportunity to even breathe a little serenity of the "city of silence" before eventually you find a nice little restaurant to finish the day.

In the center of the island, Mosta is especially known for its huge Church of St. Mary (largest of Malta), and its dome, the Rotunda, the fourth largest in the world!

The hook deserves to be done if you have rented a car or if you go there to get you to one of the other attractions of the island.

Located on the west coast of the island, Dingli goes for its cliffs, landscape that you can enjoy anywhere.
Push your journey a little further south and visit the Blue Grotto via the beautiful coastal road.
A little before going down to the tiny village, stop on one of the parking spaces and enjoy a first view on this extraordinary training nature.

Then you can take a motorboat (€ 8) for a side trip 20 minutes around the cave and discovering some of the cavities, including the famous Blue Grotto and the azure water.

It was at Ta'Qali you can find the "Crafts Village", a collection of craft shops and factories (about thirty), where you can among other things see action glassblowers, before visiting side with a shop impressive selection of creations. Tips: Articles with default (sometimes minimal) are sold at a knockdown price. You will also find many souvenirs.

The place has become very tourist, the tourist buses making stops sometimes on the adjoining parking.

Do not say too much that Gozo is attached to Malta, this may upset the inhabitants!
Gozo is more rural island, most kind, and whose occupants are proud of their roots and identity. Although not very large (14km by 7), Gozo deserves a full day. And yet, even by car, you will be far from having the time to see everything.

Small island of 3 square kilometers Comino is situated between Malta and Gozo, known for it's famous Blue Lagoon, with turquoise and incredibly clear water.
Too bad the place is completely crowded in summer and too denatured by an invasion of sunbeds and parasols. Come early or late in the day for peace of mind.

To get there you must take a shuttle from the port of Mgarr (Gozo) or from Cirkewwa (Malta). Several companies also offer cruises (with stop at Comino) from Sliema.
