Malta is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world for many reasons. A year-round temperate climate adds to the appeal of the island, especially during the winter months. Temperatures may drop to as low as 49 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter and reach as high as 90 degrees Fahrenheit during the summer. The lowest recorded temperature in the history of the island was just above 34 degrees Fahrenheit, while the highest temperature ever recorded was 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
Portomaso is a 31-acre waterfront development that boasts luxurious accommodations, clubs and exciting activities. The primary goal of the developers of Portomaso was to become one of the most prestigious locations in all of Malta and the Mediterranean. Most attractions in the Portomaso area include activities for children as well as for adults.
