Clear sea in merging shades of blue, green and turquoise gives the Maltese Islands their distinctive image. Rocky and jagged coastlines, high cliffs and the scattering of sandy beaches add to the dramatic beauty. There are no rivers or mountains, but the Islands undulating hills, fertile valleys and terraced fields offer a wonderful landscape to contrast with the towns and villages.

There are many places where nature rules in rugged splendor. The Maltese Islands are very rich in history. Strategically placed at the crossroads of the Mediterranean, they were inhabited from the earliest days of man, invaded from all directions and taken over in turn by the major cultural and political forces of the region. There’s a heritage of 7,000 years, a legacy of fascinating archeological and architectural monuments, all contained in a very small area. A wealth of places of interest spans centuries and cultures, war and peace, religion and art.

Gozo shares a common history with Malta but it is physically different and more tranquil. It is a third of the size of Malta, greener and more rural; it has more hills and deep valleys, more rugged cliffs and winding country tracks. Its heritage lies in the land rather than in the malta accommodation, yet there is still evidence of the past history.Comino is the island for nature lovers with some of the very best swimming areas in the Mediterranean. The waters are clear to the point of being transparent.

As an island it is a rugged rock and it has a variegated coastline of jagged cliffs broken by creeks, coves, tunnels and small sandy beaches. The water is particularly dazzling around the channel dividing Comino from a tiny rocky island called Cominotto where one finds the well known Blue Lagoon. A visit to the Maltese Island gives the pleasure of discovering a country full of history, adventure and fun!
