TL;DR<\/strong>Malta is the smallest state in the EU, yet it packs in more history than most large countries, and you can fly there from major European hubs in around two and a half hours. Valletta<\/strong> is entirely on the UNESCO list, Mdina<\/strong> is a hushed town behind walls, and the megalithic temples<\/strong> are older than the pyramids. The best months are May, June, September and October<\/strong>; in July and August it hovers around 30 \u00b0C with almost no rain, the sea is warmest in August (27.8 \u00b0C) and still holds 25 \u00b0C in October. \u26a0\ufe0f Malta has almost no sandy beaches \u2014 you mostly swim off rocks and platforms. English is an official language, the currency is the euro, and they drive on the left.<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n
