This little Mediterranean island has an enticing laid-back vibe and modest beauty, with enough activities to keep the whole family busy. You’ll leave Malta wanting more, whether you’re diving into Sliema’s Ballutta Bay for an afternoon soak in the city, exploring the historic, tiny alleyways of Valletta and Mdina, or leaping off cliffs with the locals into the country’s many natural pools. The natural pool leads to deep, clear water, making it one of Malta’s most beautiful snorkeling and diving locations.
