Malta is home to over 25 beaches along its 196 kilometers (122 miles) of picturesque coastline, the country's diverse shoreline features everything from golden sandy stretches to rugged rocky coves, making it a great destination for both sun-seekers and adventure lovers. The top beach destinations in Malta include Mellieha, St. Julian’s, and Marsaxlokk.

Mellieha is known for its beautiful Mellieha Bay (also known as Ghadira Beach), the largest sandy beach on the island, perfect for families and those looking to relax in the sun. St. Julian’s is home to St. George’s Bay Beach, a popular spot for both locals and tourists, offering a vibrant atmosphere and plenty of nearby amenities. Marsaxlokk, while known more for its fishing village charm, is close to the stunning St. Peter’s Pool Beach, a natural swimming pool carved into the limestone, ideal for snorkeling and cliff diving.

The best time to visit Malta for beach activities is from May to October, when the weather is warm, and the sea is perfect for swimming and water sports.
