Country Overview
Malta is definitely one of the most beautiful nations on the planet. This country has undoubtedly solidified its position in the tourism sector and sets itself apart from other Mediterranean countries with its warm weather, beautiful waters, and dynamic culture. Malta, the little Mediterranean island about 50 miles south of Sicily.
This little Mediterranean island has an enticing laid-back vibe and modest beauty, with enough activities to keep the whole family busy. You’ll leave Malta wanting more, whether you’re diving into Sliema’s Ballutta Bay for an afternoon soak in the city, exploring the historic, tiny alleyways of Valletta and Mdina, or leaping off cliffs with the locals into the country’s many natural pools. The natural pool leads to deep, clear water, making it one of Malta’s most beautiful snorkeling and diving locations.
