ISLAND HIGHLIGHTS
by Air Malta
Italian Buglos
Buglos doesn’t seem a nice enough name for these pretty perennials from the Boraginaceae Family, loved so much by bees. They grow wild by the roadside and in some countries are considered weeds. Bothe the flowers and leaves are edible and indeed in Greece, they also eat the stems.

Tut And Cawsli
This duo may sound like stage names, and these beauties really are stars. Black and white mulberries to common folk, get them before the birds do and before their very short season ends. They make a wonderful granita!

Diving
Diving in Malta is another way to immerse yourself in history. Many wrecks are submerged below the water, some placed strategically, remnants from the past, giving divers a whole new side to see of Malta and Gozo. Many registered schools offer trial lessons and rent equipment.

Saluting Battery
The Saluting Battery is a wonderful vantage point to view The Three Cities and The Grand Harbour. These canons are cared for by WirtArtna who curate other properties and places of interest. The canons are fired daily.


ST RITA’S FEAST
Italian nun, St Rita, was alive in the 14th-century and is the patron of impossible causes and hopeless circumstances –definitely worth celebrating! Head to Victoria in Gozo around the 22nd May to join in.

Mixta Cave

This natural cave located on the eastern side of Ramla Bay is very commonly confused with Calypso's Cave which is located on the other side of the same bay. Both are worth a visit and what a great instagram shot!
