Discover Malta

Malta is a compact Mediterranean archipelago where 7,000 years of history sit beside some of the clearest swimming water in Europe. Everything is close: Valletta’s baroque streets, the silent old capital of Mdina, and the laid-back sister island of Gozo are all a short hop apart, and English is an official language.

The islands are made for swimming, diving and coastal walks rather than mountains — the terrain is low and rocky. Sliema and St Julian’s are the modern hubs for dining and nightlife, Marsaxlokk is the classic fishing-village day out, and Gozo and tiny Comino (the Blue Lagoon) deliver the postcard beaches.
