Sand, Sea And Seclusion: Discover Malta’s Most Beautiful Beach

Malta is renowned for having some beautiful beaches for both tourists and locals to explore. Offering a mixture of rocky and sandy shores, the island will spoil you for choice, and with Malta’s waters being some of the cleanest in the EU, there is no reason to miss out on a trip to the seaside.

Not all its beaches are teaming with visitors, there are several that are more secluded, giving you a chance to escape the hectic and lively scenes. These quieter spots are equally stunning, and act as a hideaway for those who enjoy their own company.

The Blue Lagoon

For the touristy types, this location is perfect. Situated on the west coast of Comino, the white sand beaches and beautifully clear waters make for a unique, peaceful setting (despite the inevitable crowds during peak summer months).

Snorkelling and scuba diving are popular activities here since the water is so clean, but those who prefer to soak up the sun can do so while admiring the incredible landscape. This location is accessible by boat trip, and so usually acts as a tourist stop.

Għajn Tuffieħa

Boasting some of the best scenery in Malta, this beach is renowned for its stunning raw nature. Suitable for families and relatively easy to access, this is another popular spot for tourists.

Sunbeds and umbrellas are available for hire, and there is also a small kiosk where you can purchase seaside snacks. This beach is surrounded by some spectacular cliffs, and again, has wonderfully clear water. The amenities are useful and do not take away from the gorgeous natural landscape, creating a perfect balance between the two.

Ġnejna Bay

This beach is perfect for those looking for a more secluded spot. Hidden away on the west coast and mostly visited by the locals, Ġnejna Bay is a great alternative to the busier beaches.

Yet another of Malta’s picturesque spots, this beach offers clear sea waters, sand for sunbathing as well as a stretch of natural limestone rock to perch on. There are several kiosks, and a shallow shoreline making for a safer option when paddling. The atmospheric surroundings make this beach the perfect place to relax and feel at one with Maltese nature.

How to Get There

After flying into Malta Airport, taxis are a safe and affordable way to reach your hotel or hostel. Pre-booking your taxi will avoid hassle and will mean that you do not waste any time of your holiday searching for transport options once you land.

The helpful, friendly drivers will ensure you arrive at your accommodation as quickly as possible, allowing you to head straight to one of the fabulous beaches! Pre-booking is easy, and the services are always reliable from Malta Airport. Taxisare definitely one of the simplest transfer options, especially if you are keen to save time.
