Ahoy, Mateys! So, six adventurous souls – three couples – are setting sail for Sliema, Malta, this spring break? Splendid! As your Maritime Tours guide, I’ll navigate you through this sun-kissed Mediterranean adventure. First, let's chart our course with a budget. Assume a €3000 total budget (excluding flights) for the six of you, which is approximately €500 per couple – flexible based on your choices.

Now, assuming your interests lie in a blend of history, culture, and relaxation, let’s plan.

Expect some sunshine, occasional showers, and gentle breezes.

Sliema during spring is bustling but not overwhelmingly crowded. Popular attractions like the Sliema Front and the many churches and historical sites will have visitors, but you won't be battling elbow-to-elbow crowds. Accommodation should be easily booked in advance; a mix of hotels and Airbnb options suit various budgets. Public transport is readily available (buses are inexpensive, around €2 per ride), and taxis are easily hailed.

Regarding travel restrictions and health guidelines, check the latest advisories closer to your travel dates, as these can change. Sliema has reasonable accessibility for those with disabilities; however, always check specific venues for accessibility details beforehand.

Let's talk local flavor! Malta boasts a unique blend of cultures. You'll experience a warm welcome from the Maltese, known for their friendly nature. Pastizzi (savory pastries), fenek (rabbit stew), and fresh seafood are culinary must-tries. A traditional Maltese meal can cost around €20-€30 per person. Traditional Maltese music features influences from Italian and Arabic cultures, and often accompanies local celebrations. Expect to hear lively conversations in Maltese and English. The sounds of the sea and the bustling streets will create a vibrant atmosphere.

Architecture in Sliema is a delightful mix of historic buildings and modern structures; you will see many examples of both Baroque and Victorian style architecture. You'll see bougainvillea and other Mediterranean plants adorning balconies and gardens. The Maltese love their pets and you are likely to encounter various breeds of dogs in their strolls around Sliema.
