City/town information
In Valletta do visit the Grandmaster’s Palace, St. John’s Co-Cathedral, Fort St. Elmo and The Lascaris War Rooms. It is also worth strolling through the idyllic Upper and Lower Barrakka Gardens which have beautiful views over the harbour the 3 cities. Lately I visit Valletta underground. The info given by the guide wasn't great but seeing the underground tunnels was awesome.

Malta is a small archipelago located at the heart of Mediterranean Sea, about 80km south of Sicily and 250 km from North African shores.
It is made up of two main islands (Malta, 264km² and Gozo, 97km²) and smaller islets such as Comino (3km²), Cominotto and Filfola. Climate is temperate and the weather is fine all year long, making Malta a leading tourism destination.
The islands are made of limestone: their shores are rocky sea cliffs carved and cracked by erosion. As a consequence, most of the snorkeling spots are located within creeks and small bays.
If you’re staying in Malta Island, Fomm it-Rih and Ghar Lapsi are two excellent spots with their clear and calm turquoise waters framed by rocks. On Gozo, Hondoq ir-Rummien seduces snorkeling lovers with its small sea caves accessible from the water surface.
A few (gorgeous) sandy beaches exist in Malta, people often snorkel there despite rather sandy seabeds. Paradise Bay and Golden Bay are amongst the most popular places on Malta Island, but the Blue Lagoon (on Comino Island) is often said to be the most beautiful beach in the archipelago.
Snorkeling in Malta, you will discover amazing geological formations. St Peter’s natural Pool, on Malta Island, or Gozo Island’s Blue Hole (a freedivers’ favorite) are one-in-the-world spots.
Marine life is rich in Malta littoral waters, even though governments tackled wildlife conservation only recently. You will spot species typical from the Mediterranean Sea, above all those who dwell in rocky areas like wrasses (Mediterranean rainbow wrasses and ornate wrasse) and damselfish.
In addition, Malta waters being warmer than in northern Mediterranean areas, you will spot rarer species like the Mediterranean parrotfish (Sparisoma cretense).
If you are planning a snorkeling trip to Malta, we recommend you to take with you the great Europe and Mediterranean Marine Fish identification guide, a comprehensive guide that includes all the marine fish species that may be encountered in the Mediterranean up to 50m depth.
