About Malta
Malta is located south of Sicily in the Mediterranean Sea. Its warm, sunny climate attracts beachgoers from the beginning of May to the end of October.

Malta's megalithic temples, historic architecture, charming fishing villages, and vibrant nightlife make this island nation an appealing option for your next holiday. Diving, surfing, hiking, biking, sailing, kayaking, and rock climbing are all popular activities for adventure travelers.

Fish and vegetables are staples of the Maltese diet, but rabbit (fenek) and savory pastries called pastizzi are also local favorites. Meals are typically served with thick chunks of bread drizzled with olive oil and spread with tomato paste, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and peppers. Ask for a glass of Kinnie, a carbonated soft drink made with bitter oranges, or locally brewed ale, stout, or lager. Maltese wineries produce award-winning varietals that are sure to please even the most discerning of wine aficionados.
Standard and luxury hotels can be found on the islands of Gozo and Malta. Other accommodation options include home stays and holiday rentals.
