San Anton

Islands have been described as a massive open-air museum. Delve into their mysterious history and find out where the Knights of St John are said to have defended Christendom. But Malta is no regular museum. Here, life is lived to the full.

Wherever you go in the island, the landscape and architecture provide a delightful backdrop of honey-coloured stone against deep Mediterranean blues. So be sure to visit locations where Oscar-winning films were made or head off the beaten track to find ancient villages.

Marvel at the fireworks and revelry of the Summer Festas and enjoy the packed calendar of events all year-round.
