Why visit one fabulous Mediterranean island or another when you can explore Malta and Sicily on the same trip thanks to a speedy 90-minute ferry connection.

MI Malta can make all your arrangements for daytrip from Valletta on the island of Malta to Pozzallo on the south coast of Sicily, or a multiday vacation that includes overnights in both cities.

Malta offers the option of a city stay at a chic boutique hotel in the heart of historic Valletta, founded in the 16th century by the medieval Knights of St. John, or a sun, sea and sand escape at one of the upscale beach resorts set along the coast of Malta and Gozo islands.

Either way, there’s plenty of scope for outdoor adventure and adrenalin sports that range from scuba diving, sea kayaking and flyboarding to rock climbing, mountain biking, and horseback rides.

Pozzallo’s origins are shrouded in mystery. Nobody knows for sure who founded the city or exactly why. Although by the Middle Ages it was the most important seaport along Sicily’s south coast.

Nowadays the city offers an enticing blend of beaches and medieval buildings, and a chance to sample genuine Sicilian cuisine at al fresco restaurants along the palm-lined waterfront promenade.
