Sailing around Malta is a great experience for those who love the outdoors and is the perfect way to get to know Malta, Gozo and Comino while having fun and relaxing.
The coastline is spectacular and full of bays, caves and secluded beaches and the sunsets viewed from the water are truly breath taking.
It is relatively easy to charter a boat, if you do not arrive on board your own, whatever your preference, Malta offers the perfect backdrop to a life on the water.
Grand Harbour Marina, in Vittoriosa on Malta is where most of the superyachts berth.
Run by Camper & Nicholsons Marinas, the berths are available for sale. The location is excellent and the surrounding views of the nearby city of Valetta are spectacular.
Other marinas are attached to top five star hotels among them Portomaso Marina in the shadow of the Hilton Hotel where we are staying.
The privatisation of Malta’s superyacht shipyards and yacht repair facilities have now been completed. This has given stability to an industry that has spent years building a reputation for quality work at sensible prices well away from the high priced and often crowded refit facilities found elsewhere in the Mediterranean.
Manoel Island Ship Repair specialise in yachts between 30 and 40m, while Palumbo Superyacht Services can dry dock yachts up to 170m.
