  • Ok, so it is not your usual kind of place to visit but this is a lovely well-organised and tidy place. Many of the graves have pictures of the deceased displayed on them.
    It is a special place for me as my grandparents are buried here along with a special cousin Arthur who was a priest in the Vatican. Sadly he died in 2005. There are flower sellers outside the gates and the prices are not too high.

    Off The Beaten Path: Blue Grotto

  • I have been to Malta many times but this is the first time I have visited the Blue Grotto. You buy a ticket, walk to the waters’ edge and then take a small boat (with a few others). You are taken around the headland and through various sheltered cave entrances including that of the Blue Grotto. The sea takes on a bright blue hue and it is crystal clear. The tickets were not too expensive either. About 3Maltese Lira each, Well worth a visit.
    We came here by local bus but it is quite a hike back up the hill and if you time it wrong you have a long wait for the next bus back.
    I suggest you take an organised tour to include the Blue Grotto.

     The sliema Chalet looks like it has nice big rooms --- you are a Malta expert! That's great you've visited it so many times! Wonderful place! The Blue Grotto looks awesome!!!! Love cakes - so I guess I'll eat at Cafe Cordina, hehehe...

     A Great place to locate good restaurants in Malta and Gozo is www.maltastreetmap.com. Great map for tourists visiting Malta and Gozo. The only place online that can map any street address in Malta and Gozo.
