ive been 3 times with me mum and dad when i was younger, but me and the wife are going for a week in july, cant wait
just hire a scooter, its that small you can get everywhere on the island really easily.
go on a boat trip to gozo and the blue lagoon, good swimming there.

Went there for our honeymoon.
Not sure why we picked Malta but was a good choice. Very friendly people and they drive on the right side of the road...albeit a bit crazily.
We stayed at the Coastline Hotel....probably the best hotel we came across actually. Apart from the 5 star stuff i guess.
Do the Blue Lagoon trip....

Definitely go to Comino (Blue Lagoon) & Gozo for swimming and snorkling. I'd suggest a small car because distances are not long.
Currently max. temp. is ~26 degs. Expect it to rise to low 30s in July.
Regarding historical places there are various if you are interested. If you want to enjoy the seaviews and prefer a 4-star hotel I'd suggest Ramla Bay Resort, Marfa(limits of Mellieha). It is the in the north part of Malta but the closest to Comino & Gozo.
English is definitely not a problem here.
P.S. Don't forget to try our Cisk Lager

If you are into clubbing and parties yes. St Julians and Paceville (near each other) are the real entertainment villages in Malta

Not much as in clubbing, but plenty of bars.
It's more tourist thana clubby island TBH. Laid back life etc.
Its very busy now though, used to be well quiet but unfortunatly the tourists have found it and the expense has creeped up a lot!!
Been about 6-7 times and really enjoyed it everytime i've been!
