Malta is a group of three main islands situated in the Mediterranean half way between Europe and Africa, a comfortable sail from Sicily (80 miles from Licata). Its capital Valletta has a long and colourful history richly documented in its architecture and culture. A
fervently Christian country, with a long British rule, mild winters,
well-protected harbours and a consolidated shipbuilding tradition, Malta
provides an ideal wintering ground for yachtsmen.
