What to do in Malta

The capital of Malta is Valletta, one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the country's tourist and commercial center, where there is a greater diversity of hotels, restaurants, bars and attractions. However, it is not the only tourist city in the region, after all the cities of Saint Julian and Sliema are the places where the hustle prevails and young people are present.

The cities of Mdina and Cittadella, for example, are more historical and have beautiful architectural works that reflect different periods and cultural influences.

Malta is also made up of the neighboring islands of Gozo and Comino where there is an abundance of beautiful scenery and walks. There are several sports, beaches and attractions, such as the famous “Blue Lagoon in Comino. A lagoon that was formed between millenary rocks and features a turquoise, crystalline sea, ideal for nature lovers.



Another small paradise, literally, is Paradise Bay – Paradise Bay, in Portuguese – which is located on the island of Malta, facing Gozo. The view is incredible! Besides this, of course, there are many other beautiful Maltese beaches such as Mellieħa Bay, Għajn Tuffieħa Bay and Golden Bay. It is worth hiring a tour to see them or renting a car and exploring!
