Discover the Magic of Malta at Night: Our Hidden Gems
Welcome to the enchanting island of Malta! While there are plenty of amazing spots to explore, we often find ourselves sticking to the same areas, unaware of the hidden treasures that lie beyond. Today, we present to you a list of Malta’s captivating night destinations, guaranteed to leave you spellbound.
Rabat: History Outside the City Walls
Our first recommendation takes us to Rabat, a charming destination located just outside the bastion walls of Mdina. This tranquil town in the northern part of the island is not only steeped in history but also offers a peaceful ambiance. Take a leisurely stroll through its streets, sip a cup of coffee in cosy cafes, or indulge in a delightful dinner accompanied by a bottle of wine and some cheese.
Buskett: Unleash Your Adventurous Spirit
While we’re on the subject of Rabat, allow us to introduce you to the nearby Buskett Woodlands. During the day, it’s the perfect spot for picnics and relaxation. But as night falls, Buskett transforms into something altogether different, and dark…beckoning to the more adventurous souls. Legends speak of the White Lady, or Ghostly processions whose ethereal presence haunts these gardens. Are you ready to embrace the mysteries that await?
Valletta: Uncover Hidden Wonders
When we mention Valletta, we’re not referring to the bustling Republic Street or other busy areas. Instead, we invite you to venture into the city’s hidden alleyways, archways, and traditional Maltese balconies. Allow yourself to be enchanted by the quaint charm that surrounds you.
Mellieha: A Northern Delight
Moving north, we arrive at the picturesque village of Mellieha. As you venture there at night, prepare to be captivated by breathtaking views and mesmerizing landscapes. Explore the sandy beaches, uncover hidden towers, and immerse yourself in the mystical atmosphere that surrounds this village.
The Three Cities: A Triple Treat
We simply can’t pick just one, so we present to you the Three Cities: Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua. These historic gems offer narrow, winding streets that beg to be explored. Take a leisurely walk along the coast, savor a delightful dinner or a refreshing drink, and marvel at the awe-inspiring view of Valletta across the shimmering harbor. The Three Cities embody the true essence of Maltese beauty.
Ghajn Tuffieha: A Summer Oasis
While Ghajn Tuffieha is more popular during the summer, it still holds its allure during other seasons. This stunning location boasts a lovely beach known as Riviera, offering panoramic views that will leave you breathless. Yes, the stairs leading down to the beach may be a workout, but trust us, the effort is absolutely worth it. If you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, you can also visit the nearby sandy beach called “Golden Bay” by the Radisson. Whether you choose to unwind or explore, Ghajn Tuffieha promises an unforgettable experience.
Mqabba: Embrace Maltese Traditions
For a taste of authentic Maltese culture, make your way to Mqabba, a charming village located in the southern part of the island. While summer brings activities like the ravioli feast, the real highlight is the village feast, where you can witness breathtaking fireworks. Mqabba is renowned for its vibrant festivities, and the village feast is an event you won’t want to miss.
Mdina: Nighttime Mystique
Last but certainly not least, we have Mdina, a city that becomes even more enchanting after the sun sets. The towering walls and narrow alleys exude an air of mystery, inviting you to explore their secrets. Keep an eye out, as you may just encounter one of the many resident ghosts that are said to haunt this ancient city.
So, dear traveller, let Malta’s captivating night destinations ignite your sense of adventure. Step away from the usual and embark on an unforgettable journey into the night, where mystery, history, and beauty intertwine to create memories that will last a lifetime.
