"Malta Island" Top 5 Page for this destination Malta by Redang

Malta Travel Guide: 237 reviews and 610 photos

It can be confussing the difference between Malta (country) and Malta (island). This page is dedicted to the latter, the biggest island of the country. For Malta (country), have a look at the my other page, although I only have a few general tips and pics.

The island of Malta is about 27 kms. long and 14 kms. wide; in total, 245,7 sq. kms., and Valletta, the capital, is here.

For the info about places I visited, go to the Things to Do section. Valletta itself has its own page.

The main pic was taken from the plane a few minutes before landing. In the middle of the pic, the Church of St. Mary, in Mosta.

Great photos once again! Those distinctive yellow buses and those elaborate Spanish porches will always remind me of Malta!
