Sun, fun and friends

Since we finished uni, my housemates and I have been making the most of our time in Malta. And so have our friends and family!! We've had so many people visit us in the last few weeks it's been great fun.

The weather's been perfect for trips to the beach!!

Tigne Point, Sliema
Our local beach is just down the road from our apartment. There's no sand or pebbles just rock, it's good for chilling out for a few hours. There's even a cocktail van nearby that makes yummy cocktails from fresh fruit. On Monday I had a Strawberry Daiquiri, Friday a Long Island Ice Tea and a Strawberry and Banana Pina Colada on Saturday.

Mellieha Bay

Last Tuesday we headed over to Mellieha Bay for the day. This is a really nice sandy beach with really clear, shallow water. Perfect for people with kids. We took bats and balls and played games in the water.

The Blue Lagoon, Comino

We've done a few boat trips to Comino now, and on Thursday we took my housemate's friends there. The view is beautiful and the water is so blue. We swam from Comino over to a small island nearby and then through a cave. It was tiring, but well worth it and such a good experience. 

The first time we went, they we doing crazy sofa rides from a speedboat. It was so fast and bumpy it was like being on a roller coaster and we got absolutely soaked. IT WAS SO FUN!!

The island we swam to.

Spot the lizard.

I hear the weather was good in England last week!! Hope everyone enjoyed the bank holiday weekend. What beaches would you recommend from other parts of the world?
