Holidays by the sea in Malta
A beautiful destination that, despite its small size, has a lot to offer. It is sea, culture, cuisine as well as nature. All this awaits you in the smallest member state of the European Union. We are your guide on how to spend cheap holidays in Malta this year.
Malta is a popular destination for its magnificent weather. Pleasantly high temperatures and sun? Almost constantly, no matter what time of year you come here. The sea here is so clean that it offers perfect conditions for diving. Not only the underwater world shows its beauties. Although the island is isolated, civilization has flourished here for thousands of years. Malta’s most important historical landmark is the 5-thousand-year-old Hagar Qim Temple. This limestone gem is one of Malta’s famous megalithic temples, many of which predate the pyramids and even the Stonehenge menhir complex. All these temples are UNESCO-protected monuments.
Today, covid makes it too difficult to travel to some destinations. Malta’s Tourism Minister Clayton Bartolo has decided to offer international tourists a € 200 benefit for anyone who spends at least two nights in the country. The initiative helps to recover the country’s tourism sector. The Maltese government has previously announced they plan to cancel most of the restrictions and other bans imposed, effective June 1.
According to the Minister of Tourism, each tourist will receive EUR 150 if they choose a four-star hotel, while those who accommodate in a three-star hotel will receive EUR 100. If people choose the island of Gozo in Malta, the subsidy will increase by 10 percent.
