Why Malta for Families
Malta is home to some of the Mediterranean’s most family-friendly beaches (12 of them are blue flag), offering calm, shallow waters and well-equipped facilities. From building sand castles to enjoying gentle swims, these beaches are ideal for younger children. For families who love the outdoors, there are scenic hikes, relaxing boat trips, and the chance to explore Gozo’s picturesque countryside perfect for creating shared adventures.
Malta’s rich history comes to life in ways that are engaging for all ages. Children can explore forts, ride traditional boats, or watch interactive shows. Day trips to Gozo or the Blue Grotto blend natural wonder with exploration, giving families the chance to discover Malta’s culture without overwhelming young travellers.
Dining in Malta is easy and enjoyable for families. Restaurants are child-friendly and offer a wide selection of Mediterranean and international dishes to suit all tastes. Fussy eaters will find plenty of familiar favourites, while more adventurous children can sample traditional Maltese cuisine and desserts, influenced by Sicilian and North African flavours. Both hotels and restaurants are well-equipped to accommodate special dietary requirements, ensuring a worry-free dining experience.
