Measuring just 316 square kilometers, Malta punches way above its weight in terms of attractions and activities. As a year-round destination, this tiny island nation in the Mediterranean certainly surprised me when I visited. Coming from Singapore, a city state which is actually more than twice the size of Malta, I was taken aback by the abundance of open spaces, distinct villages as well as the number of natural attractions. Malta certainly seems much larger than its actual size suggests.
When I visited Malta, I allotted only 3 days to explore the the two main islands of Malta and Gozo (three if you also count Comino) Knowing the size of the country beforehand, I thought 3 days would actually enable me to fully explore the islands plus allow for a lot of free time. After my first day, it dawned on me just how much there is to see and do that I felt the need to plan the remainder of my trip carefully. Eventually, I was able to cover the interesting points in the islands within 3 days and here I will share with you just how to do the same. If you are in Malta for an extended weekend, this is an itinerary that you can follow.
