What a colourful year! 12 stunning shots of Malta & Gozo throughout 2019 which we simply love
Showing off the islands’ best angles.
Valletta, you stunner
Santa’s Winter Wonderland in Triton Square, Valletta this December was a real treat for the senses, captured beautifully in this shot – and you’re still in time to visit!
Colours in the air
If you’re already longing for summer, this shot of the Lija feast will take you right back to those colourful Maltese nights in every village and town square.
In a gorgeous village near you
Maltese villages are chock-full of beautiful architectural details – including many stunning home façades like this one in Balzan.
Nature’s stunning work in Gozo
Gozo’s green side shines in all its glory, and the terraced fields of Qala beneath a dramatic sky makes this shot one of our faves.
Look up!
The most dramatic parts of Maltese churches are often to be found above us, such as this beautiful dome in the parish church of Tarxien, painted by artist Gianni Vella in the 1950s.
Paint the sky orange
Sunsets on the island are pretty impressive, especially when the gorgeous sky colours are reflected on the water.
Love beneath the trees
The Three Trees traffic island in Sliema has all the makings for a perfect shot – a vintage telephone booth, a massive and imposing tree, and in this case, a couple in love sharing a moment beneath the twinkling lights.
The best kind of shade
The streets of Zabbar are transformed in summer using a simple but ever so effective accessory to protect against the scorching sun: a sea of colourful umbrellas, which make for a perfect photo op!
The nutcracker in Gozo
The capital of Gozo, Victoria, embodies the festive spirit with its nutcracker scene, where large figurines of toy soldiers have captured the hearts of the young and old alike.
The colours of spring
Also in the capital of Gozo, but captured at a warmer time of year, we love the effects of spring on the islands, when everything around us appears brighter and more vivid.
The charming silent city
Mdina is a city made for being photographed – the buildings, the façades, the squares, the churches and the views undoubtedly make it one of the most charming places in Malta, wouldn’t you agree?
