Travelling and exploring Malta and the Maltese islands from a locals point of view 🇲🇹 Living in Malta my whole life and being an avid traveller, I have constantly sought out the best places to go throughout the year in order to have a good time and admire Malta's beauty. In this guide I share all the great spots in Malta that are well known but also the local spots that don't attract as many tourists but offer a great insight into Malta and the Maltese Islands.

Malta has quickly become one of my all-time favorite European destinations! It has so much to offer: great food, unique architecture, fascinating history, and some of the best water I’ve ever seen.  This guide has everything you need for a week or more in Malta: a full Valletta city guide, the best beaches all over the island, how to day trip the island, and tips for getting to Gozo, Malta's other island!
