The talented photographer Viktor Vella captured a breathtaking photo yesterday, showcasing a stunning view of Sicily from Mellieha. The exceptional visibility, following Saturday's rain, made this moment possible.

Despite the over 90 kilometre distance between the islands, the lights of Sicily shone brightly last night. This remarkable view serves as a powerful reminder of how close we are to neighboring countries, a fact that can often be overlooked in the isolation of island life.

Have you ever spotted Sicily from Malta?
