Best Nature and Wildlife Areas in Malta

"Located in the periphery of St. Julian’s, lies a gastronomic experience that has in recent years established itself as the leading dining location for modern Mediterranean cuisine and molecular cocktails in Malta."

"Made possible by BirdLife Malta, the oldest environmental organization in Malta, this reserve is located on the outskirts of Mellieha, right across from the beach and it’s a great place to learn more about the local flora and fauna, go for a short hike, do birdwatching, and look for chameleons. This is a perfect length hike for little legs–it’s a single path that’s a little under a half mile one way–and the promise of finding chameleons will keep kids very interested. We saw several chameleons every time we visited the reserve (by walking slowly and looking hard!) and the kids loved it."

Għadira Nature Reserve, nestled in the valley just behind Mellieha Bay, consists of seven hectares of brackish lake and saltmarsh habitat. Permanent water habitats like this one are quite rare on the island due to the long, hot summers."

"Atithi Devo Bhava Since opening our doors in 1994 Emperor of India has always consistently offered traditional northern Indian specialties. The uncompromising approach to genuine quality and tradition has over the past 3 decades, won Emperor of India numerous accolades and rave reviews from a loyal clientele."

"My favourite Indian restaurant in Malta, with tasty food, mean curries and very friendly and helpful staff. They’re one of the longest established Indian restaurants in Malta and have managed to maintain high quality dining for years."

"Fine-dining in a luxury atmosphere is great, but it's not for everyone all the time. If you're looking for a great gastronomic experience, but in a much more casual atmosphere, Cheeky Monkey is definetely a spot you you need to go to. With burgers to die for and (literally) sacks of peanuts to munch on, whilst catching the latest football, match - the place is great for a fun, casual night out."

"Ocean views southeast to the Ghallis Tower are best enjoyed from one of Malta's biggest decks, and indecisive drinkers may take a while deciding from a mega..."

"Django Jazz Bar is a vibrant live music venue situated on south street. Do not let the sign reading “Borg’s Bakers” above the door deceive you; it has to stay on out of heritage preservation concerns. Indoors, another piece of history – this time in the form of a 16th century vaulted basement – serves as a stage for classical artists, up-and-coming Jazz, Blues and Rock musicians."

"The Ramla Bay Resort used to be a firm favourite among Mellieha hotels, particularly because of the self-catering apartments and studio apartments with sea view that they used to offer. Although that charm’s been kind of ruined with the towering annex with more hotel rooms, it’s still a good option to consider, with a combination unique location(and quiet area) and comfortable, well-furnished rooms."

"Ciekawym miejscem jest zatoka powszechnie znana jako Ramla Bay Marfa. Zadbane alejki, mnóstwo kwiatów, krzewów, wielopoziomowe knajpy, sporej wielkości baseny, no i oczywiście bezpośredni dostęp do zatoki. Linia wybrzeża jest idealna do snorkelingu."

"The 4-star hotel is considered to be one of the best in its category. Located at a stone throw away from the Gozo ferry terminal, the Ramla Bay Resort in Mellieha offers its own private sandy beach as well as fantastic views to all its customers."

Café Society, located on the picturesque steps that lead down to the stunning Marsamxett Harbour, offers a fantastic selection of innovative cocktails, craft beer and refreshing tipples, and hosts musicians, DJs and a live performers, as well as film screenings on summer nights."

"Tucked away in a picturesque Valletta alley, Cafe Society is truly a great hidden gem of a cocktail bar. The classy, cosy interior is adorned with vintage movie photos and their outdoor seating area provides great views of the sunset from the harbour. They have a great cocktail menu, a good wine list, and a fabulous selection of local craft beers."
