Malta has everything you could possibly want from a wonderful holiday. For a start there is that sea – deep blue to crystal clear, sea that you want to bathe in, snorkel and dive. Then there is the coastline – rocky crags and sheltered coves, powder white beaches and picturesque marinas. There is history and architecture – prehistoric temples, hilltop fortress towns, watchtowers, winding cobbled streets and medieval churches. There are beaches – long stretches of sand, hidden lagoons and fun-packed resorts with great water sports. There are museums and art galleries, stores selling traditional handicrafts, and relaxed cafes for when you just want to stop and watch the world go by. On a holiday to Malta you can experience all this – so check out our amazing holiday packages today.
Malta is one hour ahead of the UK. Malta is a member of the European Union and the currency is the euro. If you’re going on holiday to Malta on a flight from London to Malta or a flight from Manchester to Malta then you’ll fly into Malta International Airport. This is the only airport in Malta and it serves all the Maltese islands. It is located in the southern central part of Malta. Most hotels offer a shuttle bus service to guests, either by Malta Transfer (the official Airport Shuttle Service) or other shared or private transfers. This is perhaps the easiest way to arrive at your destination but it’s also straightforward to catch a taxi, with prepaid fixed rate journeys available 24 hours a day. There are also four express bus services which are fully air-conditioned. Take a look at our package holidays to book a flight to Malta.
Malta has a Mediterranean climate, with beautiful hot sunny summers and mild, somewhat rainy winters.

In November this falls to about 20 degrees and in winter (December to February) the temperatures typically hover around 15 degrees.
