Best time to visit
Malta enjoys sun year-round, but October to April offers milder temperatures (18–25°C) and fewer crowds. July and August are scorching and packed with tourists. For peaceful beaches and reasonable prices, aim for autumn and winter. Spring is also excellent.

Malta airport (MLA) sits 5 km from the city centre. Valletta is a UNESCO capital with medieval streets, fortifications and museums. Mellieha, Ghain Tuffieha and Blue Lagoon beaches are must-sees. Early morning flights give you the full day; late afternoon arrivals mean you'll want to save long walks for tomorrow.
