The 10 Best Beaches in Island of Malta, Malta

October 7, 2021 Elouise Mccaul

One of the three principal islands of the Maltese archipelago, the island of Malta is the largest of the chain. Its capital Valletta, a lively, bustling city with many buildings dating back to the 16th century, teems with cathedrals, palaces and forts. The impressive Grand Harbour offers a dramatic arrival. The top archaeological attraction is the UNESCO-designated Hypogeum temple ruins, a macabre, 5400-square-foot underground necropolis and the world's only underground prehistoric temple.

Ghajn Tuffieha Bay

Reviewed By JasmineA492 - Amman, Jordan

We visited the area at the beginning of January on a sunny day, and there were very few people there, which just added magic to the whole experience. I imagine this place to be packed in summer, the beach is sandy and it's such a beautiful spot. The clay slopes provide a dramatic contrast to the blue sea below. It's worth walking all the way around the large 'rock' overlooking the sea. We walked around this and then down to the beach. We spent some time on the beach and then walked back up towards the tower. It is so beautiful here, the views are breath-taking and it's just absolutely worth visiting, especially on a cold, sunny day if you like hiking or on a warm, sunny day if you like swimming. Next time we'll go back with a kayak so we can explore the caves around the area.

Golden Sands Beach

The immediate area is open and rather barren and rocky. A road leads down to the lovely, sandy beach sheltered on three sides by low cliffs. Mosta 5 1/2 miles, St Paul's Bay 3 miles, airport 17 miles.

There is limited parking in the parking lot near the beach. A lovely beach with a restaurant close by. There are toilets with no toilet paper which you have to pay for but they were pretty clean. A worthwhile beach to go to.

This is one of the best beaches in Malta, where you cannot even see the resorts. Just a fishing village, where the locals go for a swim. Sandy and with turquoise waters.

Best swimming experience in Malta! Perfect cliffs for dives and clear waters. Be careful with the road. You will have to walk 3-4 minutes to get there! Totally recommended!
