Hundreds of Worldwide Holidays are available on our website www.mercuryholidays.co.uk 13 St Paul’s Bay, Bugibba, and Qawra The twin resorts of St Paul’s Bay and Bugibba have become increasingly popular in recent years, along with the quieter, more exclusive area of Qawra. Bugibba is a thriving resort with a wide selection of restaurants, bars and nightspots. The town of St Paul’s Bay is quieter than Bugibba and the old town retains a traditional Maltese charm. Qawra is slightly more laid back, with a narrow shingle beach and a selection of shops, bars and restaurants. Valletta A fortified city, a previous Capital of Culture and UNESCO World Heritage Site, Malta’s capital, Valletta offers a breath-taking skyline and architecture peppered with a wealth of historic and cultural attractions. Sliema and St Julian’s Together this trio of resorts make up Malta’s biggest and most varied entertainment centre. Sliema has developed into a fashionable resort and offers a stunning promenade. St Julian’s lies north of Sliema and blends its fishing village charm with a bustling tourist centre. Mellieha, Marfa, and the North-west Coast Some of Malta’s best sandy beaches are located in the north-west, with Mellieha Bay probably the finest of them all. At the extreme north-west of Malta is Marfa Ridge, which overlooks Ramla and Paradise Bays. Gozo Malta’s smaller sister island of Gozo enjoys a more pastoral character. The coastline is populated by small fishing villages with brightly painted boats.
