Take to the sea with a luxury yacht charter
There's nothing more luxurious than a long day out at sea... with someone else doing all the skippering. Malta offers its fair share of luxury yacht charters, so choice is abundant and the sky is the limit for luxury levels. Plus, it's a great way to see the islands from a unique perspective.
It's great to see Malta from the sea, but to get a great aerial view of the islands, book a helicopter tour. You can book different packages for different areas of the islands, and companies such as Heli Fly Malta ensure safety and reliability with a team of highly trained professionals.

Spend an evening at one of Malta's casinos
There are three main up-market casinos in the St Julian's area - Casino Malta by Olympic Casino, Dragonara Casino, and Portomaso Casino. They're all within a few kilometres of each other, so it's all about preference. The best thing to do would obviously be to try them all out, one by one!

Have a drink at Quarterdeck Bar, Hilton Malta
This nautical themed bar offers a luxurious interior, but also an elegant deck which overlooks the yachts birthed in the Portomaso Marina below.

For something different to do, check out the gin and jazz night on Thursdays, from 9pm.
Have a bottle of bubbly at Tiffany Champagne & Wine Bar
With its classical leather chairs sitting on ornate Persian rugs under genuine crystal chandeliers, the opulent surroundings at Tiffany make you feel like a true VIP.
