Geography

Let’s look at why this beautiful island is a perfect stop for cruise ships. The Maltese archipelago lies in the center of the Mediterranean Sea, 93km south of Sicily and 300km from Libya, and consists of three main islands: Malta, Gozo, and Camino. They are made up of rock and limestone, with no major hills and little greenery, and have no permanent creeks or rivers. The eastern side of Malta Island is broken up in 3 large bays, capable of receiving the largest ships, including cruise ships.

This is why Malta is such a great port of call for European cruises, as the bays allows tourists to easily visit the island.
