Government of Malta

Located right in the middle of the Mediterranean, the Maltese Islands are some of the richest in the region – promising diverse culture, a dynamic history, welcoming people and eclectic attractions.

With an area of just 316sq km, the Maltese Archipelago is one of the smallest in the world. Only the three largest islands – Malta, Gozo and Comino – are inhabited. Malta is the largest of the three islands, and remains the cultural, commercial and administrative centre.
