The best time to visit Malta is April to June and September to October, when the weather is warm and sightseeing is more comfortable than in peak summer. July and August are excellent for swimming and boat trips but can be very hot and busy. Spring and autumn are ideal for combining beaches, history, and island exploring.
Malta is known for its historic cities, clear Mediterranean waters, fortifications, and ancient temples. It is especially recognised for Valletta, Mdina, the Blue Lagoon, and a mix of Arab, Italian, and British influences. The island is also known for diving, sunshine, and compact travel distances.
Must-see places in Malta include Valletta, Mdina, Gozo, Comino’s Blue Lagoon, and the Three Cities. Travellers also visit Marsaxlokk, St John’s Co-Cathedral, and prehistoric temple sites. Malta’s small size makes it easy to combine cultural and coastal highlights.
Most travellers need 4 to 6 days in Malta to see the main historic and coastal highlights. A trip of 7 days allows time for Gozo, boat trips, beaches, and a more relaxed pace. Malta works well as both a short break and a one-week holiday.
Malta is usually a mid-range Mediterranean destination. Budget travellers may spend around €55 to €85 per day, while mid-range travellers often spend €110 to €180 per day. Peak summer and seafront resort areas are usually more expensive.
Malta has a hot Mediterranean climate, with long, dry summers and very mild winters. Sunshine is one of the island’s biggest attractions, and the swimming season is long. Summer temperatures often exceed 30°C, especially in July and August.
Top things to do in Malta include exploring Valletta, swimming in the Blue Lagoon, and visiting the walled city of Mdina. Many travellers also take a trip to Gozo, go diving, tour historic fortifications, and enjoy boat excursions and seaside dining.
Malta is famous for pastizzi, rabbit stew, ftira, and seafood dishes. Other favourites include lampuki pie and sweet pastries influenced by Mediterranean and British traditions. Maltese cuisine reflects the island’s mix of Italian, Arab, and local influences.
