The main coastal city translated ‘peace, comfort’ and locally known as Tas-Sliema is on the northeast coast of Malta. Once a fishing port, Sliema combines elegant villas and town houses with spectacular views. Look out for the two significant fortification landmarks, De Redin watch towers built in the 17th century and 18th century and featuring neo-gothic influences.Read More...

Stroll along The Strand promenade and view the magnificent neighbouring city Valletta. Or families can take advantage of the playgrounds, statutes and fountains and local seating areas found along the promenade. Make sure you get a taste of the Maltese culture with budget goods in local lace, pottery, fabrics and fine silverware. Amy’s Guided Tours at 227/1 Sliema is a popular choice for travellers seeking in-depth knowledge into the local history.

Mediterraneo Marine Park at White Rocks, Bahar ic-Caghaq is a great place to see the wildlife and aquariums. You can even swim with the dolphins from here. Sliema restaurants are mostly based along the coast and offer international cuisines but make sure to try the popular national fish and rabbit dishes, Fenech. Two hotels offering seafront views overlooking the harbour are Kennedy Nova Hotel, Park Hotel and Preluna Hotel and Spa.
