Malta & Gozo: Updates & Travel

Malta & Gozo: Updates & Travel

Travel in Malta & Gozo?

  • A great European island where you can dive and eat well. Malta was English territory until 1964 and has developed into a language paradise to improve your English.
  • If you go to Malta you should of course visit the Blue Grotto. The water and the cave are at their most beautiful early in the morning when the sun shines right in. You can sail deep into the cave by boat.
  • Relax on one of the many beaches of Malta such as Blue Lagoon (where Troy was filmed) and Golden Bay. It can be extremely busy in the summer.
  • Visit the Ggantija temples which according to some are the oldest buildings in the world (more than 5,000 years old). Ggantija means giants, because it was later thought that only giants could have brought the enormous stones here. The Ggantija temples are not the only old buildings, the Hagar Qim and Mnajdra temples were probably built between 3,600 and 3,000 BC. Go diving in the North of Malta. You can also take scuba diving lessons here.
  • The island of Gozo is only a 25-minute boat ride from Malta, but it is a lot less densely populated, with a lot more nature for a nice day of hiking or mountain biking. Victoria, the capital, is also worth a visit.
  • Have a meal or a drink at the large harbor while you watch luxury yachts and sailing ships pass by.
  • You get the feeling that you are in the Middle Ages when you walk to the center of Mdina (former capital of Malta). Especially when you visit the Cathedral, the dungeons and the Palazzo Falson.
  • The capital Valletta has nice terraces and restaurants and is also on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Activities abroad: home page

From language courses to gap year abroad, from work experience to volunteering abroad, from paid work to internship abroad, from mountaineering to diving and from backpacking to travel around the world

    What social activities can you do abroad?

    • Opportunities are found in the areas of helping, learning or studying. You can get involved to volunteer in a social project at a school in Africa, Asia or Latin America. You can get involved in nature, in a project with animals or cleaning the sea or beaches. Those who want to learn more can choose for example a language course in Latin America, Spain or South Africa.

    What work related activities can you do abroad?

    • If you want to gain work experience, and/or also earn money, go and work abroad. You can combine backpacking in Australia with temporary work. You can work on campsites in Europe or bush camps in Africa. You can pretty much go all over the world to work in the hospitality industry, hotels and hostels, in the healthcare sector or for example at a diving school.

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
