Thinking of traveling to Malta soon? Good for you!
Here’s a list of the most beautiful places to visit in Malta. I also have a post about how to travel to Malta on a budget.

Valletta
Valletta, the capital of Malta, will impress you with its colorful streets.
Recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, you shouldn’t hesitate and add this cute little city to your Maltese bucket list.
Take the less busy streets to admire some of the most colorful doors and windows. Valletta rhymes with unique raw street pornography.
While you’re there you should also check the Valletta waterfront, which is a cool spot to get some original shots.
Marsaxlokk
I found out about Marsaxlokk while I was trying to decide where to go next… on Instagram. Colorful boats, blue water, and lots of restaurant terraces were quite compelling.
From what I saw, it would have been a great idea to attempt a sunrise along the bay, but I was a bit too late for it.
I still managed to appreciate a perfectly affordable lunch surrounded by vivid colors.
Spinola Bay, St-Julian’s
St-Julian is one of the popular places you can find great hotels in Malta.
Even if you’re not staying in the area, you must check out Spinola Bay.
Enjoy a walk along the bay and most importantly, be crazy about those bold colors.
Golden Bay
Golden is the word I’d use to describe the beach at Golden Bay.
I suggest you grab a meal at the restaurant on the beach where you will also share this moment with several little birds. (They are cute but cheeky!)
This place seems to be a great spot to admire the sunset at night.
Popeye Village
As soon as I saw this colorful place on Instagram, I knew I had to get to Popeye Village.
It wasn’t that easy with public transport, but it was definitely worth it. While you’re there, you should walk around the cliffs.
The Azure Window
Azure Window is on Gozo (another island accessible by ferry) and is well known because of Game of Thrones. This limestone arch is stunning!
It’s quite hard to imagine until you see it! In the area, you’ll have the impression that you are walking on the moon.
I’d suggest you walk around the cliff and find your own spot to appreciate the view.
Update: Unfortunately, the Azure Window collapsed in 2017.
There are many spots you should go to while you’re in Malta.
I only had 6 days, but I hope I can make it back again during the summertime.
That said, make sure to read our travel guide if you’re planning on visiting Malta in winter.
