Although there’s still a week left before summer officially starts, the recent temperatures have definitely made it warm enough for a swim.

Today, the page ‘Maltese Islands Weather’ recommends beaches mostly towards the south-east of both Malta and Gozo. The recommended beaches in the south of Malta are Pretty Bay, St Thomas Bay, Rinella Bay, Marsaxlokk, Ħofriet, Wied iż-Żurrieq and Għar Lapsi.

If you find yourself in the north of Malta today, Għadira Bay in Mellieħa is the place to swim.

If you’re in Gozo, head to the Dwejra Inland Sea, Xlendi, Mġarr ix-Xini or Ħondoq ir-Rummien.
