Moving to Balluta, Malta
Balluta Bay stretches along a rocky coastline that extends from Qui-si-Sana in Sliema to St. Julian’s. During the peak summer months, this shoreline attracts a bustling crowd of sunbathers.
Steps and handrails placed at intervals provide convenient access to the water. The area offers ample flat rocks perfect for laying out a towel. The sea at Balluta Bay is deep, generally clean, clear, and safe for swimming, making it ideal for snorkeling enthusiasts. Some hotels, particularly towards the St. Julian’s end, offer beach concessions with pools, water sports facilities, and lido areas that transform into vibrant nightlife spots. Popular beach areas include Tigne, Qui si-Sana, Għar id-Dud, the Exiles, and Fond Għadir. Several are well-known lidos or beach clubs accessible to the public.
During peak summer, Sliema’s beaches become lively and sociable by mid-afternoon. In winter, the promenade is perfect for brisk walks, while summer evenings invite leisurely strolls and the opportunity to witness spectacular waves during occasional autumn storms. Along the coast road, you’ll find numerous snack bars, restaurants, and kiosks near the shoreline, offering refreshments and local delicacies.
