When to go to Malta?

To enjoy the surprising archipelago of Malta, it is best to know when to leave. Even though the temperatures make swimming possible most of the year, all seasons are not equal. Spring and autumn are the two most pleasant seasons to discover this beautiful Mediterranean island. The climate is very mild and you enjoy both summer swimming and hiking without being overwhelmed by the heat.

The climate of Malta is Mediterranean. Winters are mild and summers are hot. In March, the temperature is around 64°F rising to 77°F in June. The sirocco blowing from Africa brings sun and warmth to Malta in July and August when temperatures can exceed 30C. In January, the temperature drops to 59°F. The rainy season starts in November and ends in February. Despite the chance of heavy rains in winter, the volume of rainfall remains relatively low.
The ideal time to visit Malta is between April and June, as it avoids the summer heat and the influx of tourists. September and October are also good for the warmth of the water.
