Welcome to Malta!

With it's megalithic temples, historical sites, sandy beaches and mediterranean cuisine the Maltese Islands are positively fabulous.

The islands are virtually in the centre of the Mediterranean, 92km south of Sicily and 286km north of Africa. They consists of: Malta, Gozo and Comino.

The narrow streets in the old towns and villages are filled with cathedrals and Baroque palaces. Malta has the oldest human structures in the world and is justly described as an open-air museum.

The largest island being Malta. The second largest island is Gozo. It is more rural, and based on fishing, tourists and agriculture. Comino with it's magnificent turqouis seas is virtually uninhabited.

With near all near round sunny weather, nice beaches, good nightlife and 7,000 years of history, there is plenty to see and do. The Hypogeum for example was selected as a place of World Heritage by UNESCO, just like the prehistoric temples and grand palaces to name a few.
