With mythical underwater caves, stunning temples, and a medieval aura; Malta holidays are packed with magic. Where streets wind effortlessly around quaint villages and bustling towns, through colourful markets and ancient castles, it's easy to become lost in the mystic beauty of this island. An idyllic getaway for families and couples alike; Malta’s picturesque harbours, lively nightlife, and rugged beauty call British travellers to its shores every year.

But, if you’re looking for golden sands, Mellieha Bay is just the ticket.
Visit the Ta Quali Crafts Village
Ta' Qali Crafts Village in Malta is a vibrant hub showcasing the island's rich artisan traditions. Located in a former World War II airfield, the village is home to numerous workshops where skilled craftsmen create and sell traditional Maltese products, including hand-blown glass, silver jewellery, pottery, and lace. Explore these unique crafts, interact with the artisans, and even watch them at work. It’s the perfect spot to pick up a souvenir to remember your holiday in Malta.
Food & Drink
Malta holidays are a foodie’s wonderland. An eclectic marriage of Mediterranean tastes, Maltese cuisine is reminiscent of Italian styles, sprinkled with flavours of the island's past residents. Valletta and Mdina are packed full of elegant restaurants offering luxury dining experiences, while St Paul’s Bay is renowned for its authentic Maltese street food.
Enjoy Maltese olives and traditionally baked Ħobż tal-Malti or try pastizzi – a fluffy pastry stuffed with either ricotta cheese or a paste of peas. Indulge in fresh seafood and pizzas washed down with locally brewed Ċisk or divine Marsovin or Delicata wine. Once you taste the flavours of Malta, you won't want to leave.
