Beach vacations with kids
Malta is not bad for a vacation with kids if you go in May or September. Of course, we are talking more about a seaside vacation.
Warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, gentle beaches, rocky or sandy, not too expensive resorts - everything in these parts is adapted for safe bathing and walking.
Marsascala Resort
But remember the active sun, so walking with the younger generation in summer should be done with some caution. If you want a quiet family vacation, and away from the noisy beaches, Marsascala, a town in the east of Malta, is ideal. It is located in a picturesque bay.
Far from the entertainment centers and the main attractions, it's the edge of the island. The road to Marsascala is not too good, with few signposts and poor pavement. Although purely externally the town is cozy. Read more about sea resorts here. We can also recommend the quiet Cirkevva and Marfa. From here you can swim to the island of Goza.
Mellieha Resort
Perhaps the best vacation with kids in Malta would be in Mellieha, which has a very developed tourist infrastructure and lots of entertainment. There are also plenty of shallow waters for the little ones to splash around in, and plenty of playgrounds around the towns.
Active Entertainment
- Splash and Fun Park
One of the most popular summer vacation spots for families with kids is the Splash and Fun Park water park. It has water slides, play areas and Europe's largest wave pool.
- Mediterraneo Marine Park
Aside the water park is the Mediterraneo Marine Park, where dolphins and sea lions put on a show and children over 8 can swim with them.
- Sailor Popeye Popeye Village
For very young children, a good vacation spot would be Sailor Popeye's Village Popeye Village. This village was built in 1980 for the filming of a movie. There are giant fishing boats and old fishing huts perched on the picturesque cliffs of the bay.
Prices for a vacation with a child
Prices for a vacation with children will not scare you, many hotels in Malta give good opportunities and discounts. On average, such a trip with flights, accommodation, but without excursions, will cost about 400-500 EUR for one. Family vacations with children in Malta are also chosen by those families who like active walks on bicycles and interesting excursions.
