Northern Malta offers some of the island’s most beautiful coastlines and laid-back seaside living. From the lively St. Paul’s Bay to the tranquil coves of Xemxija and the golden sands of Mellieħa, this region captures the true essence of a Mediterranean escape.
St. Paul’s Bay is one of Malta’s most popular holiday areas, known for its sparkling waters, family-friendly vibe, and excellent restaurants along the promenade. The nearby resort towns of Buġibba and Qawra offer lively nightlife, boat trips to Comino’s Blue Lagoon, and water-sports activities for all ages.
A few minutes away, Xemxija presents a quieter side of the coast. Nestled at the start of a lush valley, it’s perfect for scenic walks, especially along the Xemxija Heritage Trail, where ancient cart ruts and Roman relics meet panoramic sea views. It’s a great choice for travelers who want peace while staying close to the action.
Further north lies Mellieħa, famous for Mellieħa Bay (Għadira Bay) — Malta’s largest sandy beach. Here, shallow turquoise waters stretch for hundreds of meters, making it ideal for swimming and families. The hilltop village above offers charming cafés and a beautiful parish church overlooking the bay. From Mellieħa, ferries to Gozo are just a short drive away, perfect for day trips.
