🌏 Destination Overview
Malta is a honey-stone island nation at the heart of the Mediterranean, with history older than the pyramids. Its capital Valletta was built by the Knights; its walls, cathedral and Baroque old town are World Heritage, and Mdina's 'Silent City' is especially charming at night. Though the famous Azure Window has collapsed, the Blue Grotto's sea-carved cliffs and Comino's Blue Lagoon remain the clearest blue of the Mediterranean. With English widely spoken and abundant sunshine, Malta is a holiday island that blends history, isles and Mediterranean character.
