Description
Malta might be in the middle of the sea, but it’s been inhabited for nearly eight millennia. Almost 8,000 years ago, humans first approached the island from the sea. Just maybe, they landed where Valletta stands today, attracted to the natural harbours that surround the city. Maybe, they sailed on the same waters as our Harbour Cruise.
The Harbour boat starts from the Sliema Ferry Terminal and heads towards Manoel Island in Marsamxett Harbour, which is home to the star-shaped Fort Manoel. The island is also home to the Lazzaretto, a 16th-century quarantine hospital that was built in response to a plague outbreak in the city. You can hop off at Esplora to explore Kalkara, a village which is, home to Fort Ricasoli. In recent times, scenes in both Gladiator and Game of Thrones were filmed in the fort. When you’re ready hop back on the boat or the bus to head to your next destination.
To make your stay more complete, your combination ticket also hop-on hop-off use of our two bus routes on the island, the North and the South, so that you can explore the island to your heart’s content. With more than 30 stops across all corners of the island, it’s the perfect way to get to know this perfect place that little bit better.
