Marinas

Set in the clear limpid waters of the central Mediterranean, the Maltese Islands will delight any yachtsman. Charter companies offer different types and sizes of yachts for charter. Flanked by Comino & Gozo to the north of Malta , the Archipelago’s 200 km coastline is indented by harbours naturally sculptured out of the islands’ soft limestone.

Water Colours

These fascinating rock formations reaching down to the sea-bed create the different shades of blue providing the idyllic surroundings for yachts to drop anchor in any time during the sailing season.

Land Ahoy!

Apart from the sea, Malta offers the visitor the hospitality of its people and a rich European island culture. Boasting prehistoric monuments and baroque architecture, Malta presents a journey through history. With high-street shopping and the latest discotheques for the young at heart, Malta pleasantly surprises the visitor even after disembarking. English is the main business language and is widely spoken. Malta is served by local newspapers and radio stations in English and Europe ’s leading newspapers are flown in on a daily basis. Malta ’s charm has been formed by her maritime traditions - traditions which have now been improved upon to offer yachtsmen an even greater cruising centre.
