Hondoq Bay

Reviewed By profjoypc - Alnwick, United Kingdom

We enjoyed walking from Mgarr harbour along the cliff top walk to Hindoq with spectacular views out over Comino and Malta beyond. Hondoq itself is a lovely small bay with a restaurant which gets busy in the summer season but is very quiet at the time of year we were most recently there (January)

Spinola Bay

Reviewed By jackrichardg - La Linea de la Concepcion, Spain

To rate an entire location is something that I woukd find difficult to put into words. However, Spinola Bay serves a welcome along the lines of Mediterranean meets British harbour. The mix of old and new, abundant collection of restaurants and cafes, and the multicultural assortment of both visitors, workers and locals alike is enchanting. All built in a fishing village atmosphere. Not to be overlooked when visiting Malta.

Our highlight in Malta, a real hidden gem, great scenery , diving off rocks into crystal clear waters, you could spend hours here soaking up the activity. Not a pool at all, just a special place

Inland Sea

Reviewed By lyndase44 - Brisbane, Australia

We discovered this place by 'accident' as we were driving around the island. It is amazing, for a mere 4euro you can take a boat trip through the natural arch into the sea which is the bluest any of us have ever seen, as if someone had tipped a bottle of ink into the water, incredible. We swam in the 'inland sea' but it is a place to dive , equipment can be hired. There is ample parking , a great restaurant where we had a stunning lunch of locally caught grilled fish.....also a small bar/cafe right beside the water where we enjoyed a local beer.

Coral Lagoon

Reviewed By thetravellingfrenchy - Prague, Czech Republic

This lagoon is a hidden cave that is very popular diver’s spot due to its crystal clear waters. From Little Armier Bay, you can get there by kayak or by foot and swim in this unusual, true beauty of nature! A lot of people are jumping off the top of the cave but be careful because the rocks surrounding lagoon are pretty harsh and might cut you. It is better to walk around with sneakers or water shoes.
