Malta’s quiet and rural sister is just a 25 minute ferry from the main island and yet it seems like a different world. With a population of around 90% less than Malta, it’s easy to find some peace and quiet and enjoy the spectacular views. Gozo was famed for the Azure Window at Dwejra, which unfortunately collapsed in 2017 after heavy storms, so we set out to see what else this small rock could offer.
The tiny dots of land that make up Malta can be easily overlooked. This small Mediterranean archipelago between Sicily and Northern Africa is steeped in fascinating history and full of natural sights. More than just sand, sun and sea it’s capital city Valletta is a cosmopolitan centre lined with old narrow streets and baroque architecture. This year, the city gears itself up as the European Capital of Culture – with a multitude of shows and art events planned. There has never been a better time to visit Malta and experience it’s unique culture and stunning landscapes.
