Day plan

Drag a spot by its handle (⠿) into a day, or reorder within a day. New spots land in Ideas. Changes save automatically.

Renting a car? Base days loosely by region so you're not crossing the island twice. Gozo + Comino work well as one block.

A little history

Seven thousand years on one small archipelago — temple builders, Arabs, the Knights of St John, Napoleon and the British. Then the story behind your saved spots.

    Eye of the luzzu · the boat charm painted on Malta's fishing vessels, said to ward off bad luck at sea.

    Good to know

    The practical stuff for ten days on the road — driving on the left, rocky beaches, cash vs cards, ferries and the July heat.

    Two travellers · one rental car · based in Mdina · 9–19 July.
