Take land-based activities, for instance: you’ll find mapped-out routes for walking, hiking, cycling and mountain-biking trails for varying levels of difficulty, although venturing off the beaten path is also recommended if you’re looking to discover your own little gems. If you’re up for something less ordinary, there are plenty of opportunities for horse riding, quad biking, rock climbing and abseiling in the most gorgeous spots on the islands.
Still, adventure on an island needs to touch the sea at some point, and that’s where the islands are at their best. Being a world-renowned destination for diving and snorkelling, you won’t want to miss all that the underwater world has to offer. If you’re looking to stay in the sun, you’ll find watersports centres on all of the larger beaches to offer windsurfing, kayaking, jet-skiing, water-skiing and wakeboarding on bright blue seas. Not to mention all the boat, yacht and cruise charters available throughout the summer.
If you’re looking for more, we’d suggest you look to the skies. Check out trial flights available around Malta to enjoy the thrill of flying a small aircraft while seeing the island from the skies. Paragliding, parasailing or helicopter rides are available from various organisations as well.
