Grand Master’s Palace
In the center of Valletta is the largest structure of the capital, the Palace of the Grand Master. The Maltese people just call it “il-Palazz”. Its facade represents the style of the 16th Century; the Baroque portals were added in the 18th Century. The palace was, during the British rule, seat of Governors and now serves as the official office of the Maltese President, as well as a meeting of Parliament. Nevertheless, parts of the palace can be visited (e.g. the armoury).

Blue Grotto
A real highlight is the Blue Grotto which we recommend you to visit throughout your internship Malta. It is a cave which lies on the southwest coast of Malta. It cannot be seen from the mainland and can only be reached by sea. At this point in the sea are many blue-green algae, causing the water to strong bluish gleams in the sunshine. The grotto includes six cave arches. When the weather is good you can visit the caves with small boats.
Gozo
If you have a day off, it is advisable to do a day trip to Gozo. There you can visit the Azure Window in Dwejra, the citadel in Victoria, and the bay of Xlendi.

Ghajn Tuffieha
Probably the most beautiful sandy beach of Malta is located in the northwest of the island and is fortunately still completely undeveloped. It offers you a yellow to almost red sand, crystal clear water and great possibilities to snorkel.
The Ghajn Tuffieha Bay is not so easy to get to; there is a hill and descend way with 200 steps; the great advantage of this is that the beach is usually less busy, than other beaches on Malta.
Golden Bay
The Golden Bay is the most famous beach of Malta which you should visit during your internship Malta. It is located next to the Ghajn Tuffieha Bay and is easy to get to by bus, as well as by car. There are several restaurants and possibilities to rent water sports equipment.
Anchor Bay
This beach is mostly famous for Popeye Village, which is the backdrop for a movie with Robin Williams as Popeye. The village film set is a tourist attraction, but also fishermen use the picturesque small bay for their work. There is a fairly steep slope leading down to the bay. The water is calm, but the bay is only suitable for good swimmers.
