Malta in April

Sunny walks and spring celebrations

The short answer

April is one of the best months to visit Malta.

April is a strong month for exploring Malta’s historic towns, coastal paths and countryside. Easter can bring religious celebrations and additional visitor demand, while the sea is still cooler than in summer.
