  • About Malta

    St. Pauls Bay, named after the apostle Paul, is now one of the most popular holiday resorts in Malta. The liveliness of this beautiful bay makes it a fine seaside resort with crystal clear sea and high-quality restaurants. On the promenade of St. Pauls Bay, you can take a nice walk, find various souvenir shops or relax on a terrace. The sunset in the bay is one of the most beautiful moments during a stay here. From here you can also make different excursions, for example a visit to the island of Gozo or a day in the capital Valletta.
