Exploring Malta: Summer 2023 Guide

Are you planning a trip to Malta in Summer 2023? Look no further! In this blog post, we will guide you through the must-visit places and exciting activities to make the most of your summer holiday in this beautiful Mediterranean island.

1. Discover the Blue Lagoon at Comino

Kick off your Malta adventure by visiting the stunning Blue Lagoon in Comino. This crystal-clear turquoise water surrounded by limestone cliffs is the perfect spot to relax, swim, and soak up the sun. Don’t forget to bring your snorkeling gear to explore the underwater world teeming with marine life.

2. Explore the Historic City of Valletta

Valletta, the capital of Malta, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is rich in history and culture. Visit the impressive St. John’s Co-Cathedral, stroll through the picturesque streets lined with colorful balconies, and explore the Upper Barrakka Gardens for breathtaking views of the Grand Harbor.

3. Go Scuba Diving in Gozo

Head over to Gozo, Malta’s sister island, for an unforgettable scuba diving experience. Gozo offers a variety of dive sites, including coral reefs, underwater caves, and even a shipwreck. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver, there are options for all levels.

4. Relax on the Sandy Beaches of Mellieha

Mellieha Bay, also known as Ghadira Bay, is Malta’s largest sandy beach and a perfect spot for sunbathing and swimming. The clear blue waters are shallow and calm, making it ideal for families with children. Grab a beach chair, soak up the sun, and enjoy the gentle sea breeze.

5. Visit the Prehistoric Temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra

For history enthusiasts, a visit to the prehistoric temples of Ħaġar Qim and Mnajdra is a must. These megalithic structures date back to 3600-3200 BC and are among the oldest free-standing stone structures in the world. Explore the temples and learn about Malta’s fascinating ancient history.

6. Enjoy a Boat Tour around the Maltese Islands

Embark on a boat tour and explore the beauty of the Maltese islands from a different perspective. Sail along the stunning coastline, visit hidden caves, and swim in secluded bays. Some boat tours also include stops at various attractions, giving you a chance to explore different parts of the islands.

7. Feast on Traditional Maltese Cuisine

No trip to Malta would be complete without indulging in the delicious local cuisine. Try traditional dishes like rabbit stew (fenkata), pastizzi (savory pastries filled with ricotta or mushy peas), and ftira (a Maltese bread topped with various ingredients). Don’t forget to pair your meal with a glass of local wine or the refreshing Maltese beer, Cisk.

Remember to check for any travel restrictions or guidelines before your trip, as these may be subject to change. With its stunning landscapes, rich history, and warm Mediterranean climate, Malta in Summer 2023 promises to be an unforgettable experience. Start planning your trip now and get ready for an adventure of a lifetime!
