Peel the onion …
Many visitors to the Maltese Islands often make the “mistake” of only visiting the top attractions and beaches.
True most of the time, your itinerary may not allow you to see all that you’d like to see. And vacations are all about personal preference anyway, some like to take it easy (it’s a vacation after all) while others like to explore everything in sight!
Heavenly Blue Lagoon on Comino island
However, just like an onion, the Maltese Islands have lots of “layers”.
Layers of interesting areas, anecdotes, historical legacies, curious cultural traditions and much more … so by doing some simple research before you actually visit, you’d be in a much better position to plan your time wisely and perhaps include a couple of off-the-beaten-track attractions too!
Plus you’ll also get to know all about the interesting little titbits that will make your Malta holidays truly memorable!
