Mellieħa: Discover Northern Malta 🧭
Mellieħa is located in the north of Malta and is the ideal starting point for exploring the region. Here you'll find some of the island's most beautiful beaches, such as the famous Mellieħa Bay (Ghadira Bay) or the secluded Ghajn Tuffieha Bay. The neighboring islands of Gozo and Comino are also easily accessible from here.

A rental car is a good idea in Malta to explore the island flexibly. However, Mellieħa also has a well-developed bus network that takes you to all the important places.
