Malta & Gozo: Updates & Travel
Travel in Malta & Gozo?
- A great European island where you can dive and eat well. Malta was English territory until 1964 and has developed into a language paradise to improve your English.
- If you go to Malta you should of course visit the Blue Grotto. The water and the cave are at their most beautiful early in the morning when the sun shines right in. You can sail deep into the cave by boat.
- Relax on one of the many beaches of Malta such as Blue Lagoon (where Troy was filmed) and Golden Bay. It can be extremely busy in the summer.
- Visit the Ggantija temples which according to some are the oldest buildings in the world (more than 5,000 years old). Ggantija means giants, because it was later thought that only giants could have brought the enormous stones here. The Ggantija temples are not the only old buildings, the Hagar Qim and Mnajdra temples were probably built between 3,600 and 3,000 BC. Go diving in the North of Malta. You can also take scuba diving lessons here.
- The island of Gozo is only a 25-minute boat ride from Malta, but it is a lot less densely populated, with a lot more nature for a nice day of hiking or mountain biking. Victoria, the capital, is also worth a visit.
- Have a meal or a drink at the large harbor while you watch luxury yachts and sailing ships pass by.
- You get the feeling that you are in the Middle Ages when you walk to the center of Mdina (former capital of Malta). Especially when you visit the Cathedral, the dungeons and the Palazzo Falson.
- The capital Valletta has nice terraces and restaurants and is also on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
