Sliema Promenade
Periodo migliore per visitare
It is best before sunset, when Valletta takes on a golden hue, and the temperature is pleasant in both summer and winter. Early morning is ideal for those who want a quieter walk before the crowds arrive.
Consigli per il budget
Entry is completely free, and the same goes for swimming in the sea directly from the rocks. The ferry to Valletta costs about 2 euros one way, and coffee in local cafés is twice as cheap as in tourist restaurants on the promenade itself.

Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: Along this coast stretches about 1.3 kilometers of promenade with views of Valletta across the harbor. Along the shore itself there are several bathing spots with ladders that allow direct entry into the sea without a beach.
Punti salienti: When the sun goes down, you see all of Valletta turn into a glowing backdrop across the water, and the ferries that carry passengers every 30 minutes will take you to the other side of the harbor in just 10 minutes. At the end of the promenade, at Tigné Point, the remains of a 16th century fortress stand side by side with modern glass cafes, creating an incredible contrast between old stone walls and contemporary architecture.
Consigli da insider
- Bring water shoes, the rocks are slippery and sharp when entering the sea.
- The best photo is from the end of the promenade at Tigné Point, from which you can see all of Valletta in the frame.
- The Bugibba side sunset is beautiful, but there is the least crowd on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, when the locals are working.
- The ferry to Valletta is more cost-effective than a taxi, and the line departs every half hour until midnight.
