Malta

Ladies'    bikini tops and very short shorts are not suitable in towns especially in Valletta.  For sunbathing,  don't go topless at the beach. When visiting a church, you should wear tops with short sleeves (not tank tops) and long shorts or better still long trousers.

Malta International Airport  (Valletta)
Six express (X) services and other buses run from the airport to all of Malta's main towns from around 5am to midnight. Transfer  services to major hotels take  15 to 25 minutes.

Valletta Sea Passenger Terminal 
Transfer  services to major hotels take  15 to 25 minutes.

Renting a car gives you more flexibility, particularly to discover out-of-the-way beach coves.

Distance isn't a problem – the longest distance on Malta is 27km and the widest point is around 15km. On Gozo, the longest distance is about 14km and the widest only 7km.  Moreover, unlike most of Europe, the Maltese drive on the left.

Alternatively, you can consider ferries and buses.  Valletta Ferry Services operates regular ferries between Valletta's Marsamxett Harbour and Sliema,  as well as from near Valletta Waterfront to the Three Cities.

To get from Valletta to the Three Cities, another option is on a traditional wooden   dghajsa .

Many bus routes on Malta originate from the Valletta Bus Station and radiate to all parts of the island, but there are also many routes that bypass the capital; bus timings range from every 10 minutes to hourly for less-visited places. Punctuality is a challenge, however, and many buses run considerably late, especially in the afternoon and evening. Patience is a traveller's friend. On Gozo, the bus system is much more efficient than previously, though some places are only served by an hourly bus.  You can buy single tickets as you board the bus or from ticket machines, which are found near numerous bus stops.

There are no train services in Malta.
