You’ll not only make the most of visiting the Maltese Islands during the winter but you’ll actually love it so much that you’ll be glad you made this choice!
The pros
There are some definite advantages to visiting Malta in the winter. You can enjoy its authentic beauty and relish the true Mediterranean lifestyle minus the hoards of tourists. You’ll get to enjoy the greener countryside and possibly bathe in the sea too! There’s still plenty to do when you add up the history, culture and entertainment that’s always there, no matter the weather. And you can do it all for low season prices.
Know before you go
Do you know little or nothing about Malta? Perhaps you just got some good deals on flights and taking the plunge for a quick getaway. Or you're heading over on a business trip. Here are some fast facts about Malta to help you on your way.
What to pack
It’s easy when you know, so here are some valuable tips regarding the bare essentials to pack on your trip to the Maltese Islands.
What if it's raining
Of course you're hoping to chance at least a few of those famous 300 days of sunshine. But rainy days can still spell lots of opportunity to enjoy indoor activities that will make you more than happy and completely forget about the weather.
What to put on your itinerary
Malta may be largely marketed as a sea and sun destination, but it is really much more than that. We suspect the authorities intentionally keep that a secret to offer the locals some respite from the massive crowds of visitors at least for a few months a year. There’s more than enough to enjoy a perfect winter break in Malta. There are also plenty of family-friendly things to do when visiting with the kids during a school break.
See! We've got you covered.
