Escape the Cold in Winter

No surprises, but Europe gets cold in winter. Therefore the desire to flee that cold is perfectly rational. Thanks to its Mediterranean climate and southern location, Malta actually does pretty well in winter. Sure you’re bound to have the odd rain shower and I wouldn’t exactly call it beach weather. However, compared to the frozen state of mainland Europe, Malta will feel positively tropical. The weather’s perfect for sightseeing or for going on hikes on Gozo. Average highs from January to March are 17°C which beats the -7°C.
