I fell in love with Malta around ten years ago now. Although small in size you’d be amazed of how many places of interest the islands harbour. Not a place to get bored easily, also when it comes to nightlife. One of the few things I wish they’d change is the age old buses that drive around the island for public transport.
the hotel was a bit icky and my brother didnt make it bcoz he realised his passport was out of date about 20 mins away from the air port but apart from that it was really good and was my last family holiday before my dad passed away.
I’v been to Malta twice. Once to learn some english and once to learn to dive. I lived in Bugibba the first time, and the second (the dive trip) in Sliema. The diving was good, the weather was hot and the people talk english well. I could return again!
I spent a week here and it was hard to get used to how small the island is. It has incredible history though and the beaches areawesome. We took a boat trip around the whole island and stopped at the blue lagoon to snorkel. I got to swim up close to all sorts of sea life and the water is so clear and blue it was absolutely amazing. The cities are small and cramped but so many cultures are crammed together is great. Worth visiting but they do drive on the left side of the road. The MAtese currency kills the dollar as well.
“Hi folks, I will be in Malta for a week and thus haveto choose carefully what I'll do: which one was your favourite hike? I like to hike up to 6 hours max, so if you could let me know how long it took you, this would be great. Thanks a lot!

“I'm heading to Malta early August and really looking forward to it. Can anyone suggest a company that does kayaking tours? Also a boat trip with a stop for snorkelling would be lovely too if anyone has any suggestions.”
