Best beaches in Malta
RAMLA BAY, known in Maltese as Ramla il-Hamra (Red Sands), is the biggest sandy beach on the Maltese Island of Gozo. The area that surrounds the beach is beautifully undeveloped. If you’re looking for a picturesque sandy beach to relax on that’s surrounded by Mediterranean azure blue waters, then look no further than Ramla Bay.
GHAJN TUFFIEHA BAY is the second sandy beach in a chain of beaches together with Golden Bay and Gnejna Bay. The beach is remote and ideal if you want to escape the crowds to truly relax with picturesque views. The rugged coastline and the hillside behind the beach offers a natural and untouched atmosphere. ST PETER’S POOL, located in the Southwest of Malta, is one of the most beautiful natural swimming pools on the Maltese Islands. The crystal-clear waters and lighting offers fantastic opportunities for snorkelers. If you want to escape the tourist trail this is the perfect opportunity to take a swim in a tranquil location.
MELLIEHA BAY is Malta’s longest sandy beach stretching across 800m, making it one of the most popular beaches with holiday makers. The beach slopes gently into ankle deep crystal clear water for approximately 50-metres, making it a perfect beach for families with younger children.
