6 Reasons You Know You’re Going To Return To Malta

Words by: Lovin Malta

To some, your dream holiday is about to begin and there is a lot to be excited about, while, to others, it’s sadly the end of an awesome trip. But saying goodbye sucks; with all the beautiful things to see and do in Malta, you know you’re gonna be booking your reunion with our islands ASAP and here’s why:

You’ll miss the amazing food

Apart from the fantastic delicacies Malta has absolutely nailed (rabbit stew or fried octopus anyone?) you’ll be hard pressed to find so many brilliant restaurants so closely packed together. And don’t even get us started on the seafood…

You’ll crave swimming in our seas

Sure, you might be able to swim at your local pool, but you’ll be booking your flights back as soon as you hear the call of the crystal blue Mediterranean waters. With beautiful beaches like Golden Sands (Mellieħa) and San Blas (Nadur, Gozo) on the two main islands, we don’t even need to play the ultimate trump card: Comino’s Blue Lagoon.

You won’t find nightlife like it anywhere else

With all the clubs your heart desires in Paceville, and all the bars you could ever want in Valletta, Sliema, Bugibba and beyond, there’s nothing quite like Malta after dark. Plus, you’ll need to return to find more of those secret wine bars, tucked away on some adorable street corner.

Your secret history nerd won’t allow you to stay away

With over 7,000 years of history spread out over the islands, Malta really packs a punch when it comes to treasures from the past. Whether it’s a visit to Ggantija, the ancient Neolethic temples on Gozo, or simply walking through the bustling streets of Valletta (or the quiet alleys of Cittadella (Gozo) and Mdina), your culture geek will miss the constant historic thrills.

Your Instagram feed will look too boring

How can you maintain the perfect social media presence without those gorgeous shots of Maltese balconies, or the perfect angle capturing the sunset behind the Azure window (Dwejra, Gozo).

We’ll never rain on your parade

Come on, how can anyone stay away from a place boasting around 300 days of sunshine a year?
