Malta might be one of the smallest countries in Europe but it is also one of its most loved with travellers from across the world coming to enjoy its stunning scenery and attractions. Malta has more than 7000 years of historic sites dating back to the Neolithic period and you may still see the remains of megalithic temples dedicated to the goddess of fertility. In later periods the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans and more recently the French and the British all left their mark upon the island and there’s a number of interesting and historic sites to see.
If you aren’t keen on the historic aspect of Malta you can find a huge selection of other good Malta attractions which are ideal for the whole family. Thousands of people come to Malta each summer season for the magnificent diving. The waters around the Maltese islands are really clear and the calm conditions make it the ideal location for novices to learn to dive. For more experienced scuba divers there are a number of more difficult dives which take in reefs, caves and archaeological sites dating back to Roman times. Scuba diving trips are simple to schedule via Malta tours or Mdina tours and will definitely produce an electrifying experience.
