Malta Malta is a small, beautiful island where the sun shines down on countless
rocky inlets and various sandy beaches. Golden Bay, Mellieha Bay and Paradise Bay are three of the best. You'll spot many
British influences here, and as the Maltese speak English you can really get to grips with the island's history, nightlife
and culture. If you get the chance, explore the capital, Valletta, to see palaces and narrow streets, but otherwise you can
just enjoy sunbathing, watersports, lidos and picturesque harbours.
