Let yourself be charmed by Malta’s beauty!
On Saturday 12th July, Heritage Malta invites you to a unique evening cruise around Filfla, featuring a breathtaking sunset experience and a scenic return through the majestic Grand Harbour.
Discover how Filfla was formed, the etymology of its name, the island’s allure for pirates, its use as a bombing target, the creatures and plants that now call Filfla their home, and countless other facts during the boat ride along the eastern and southern coast of Malta. And keep your eyes on target – sightings of seabirds, turtles and dolphins are possible!
Malta’s Grand Harbour, on the other hand, is one of the most stunning natural harbours in the Mediterranean. Steeped in history, it has served as a strategic maritime hub for centuries, from the Neolithic to the Phoenicians to the Knights of St John and the British Empire. Surrounded by imposing fortifications such as Fort St Elmo, Fort St Angelo and Fort Ricasoli, today the Grand Harbour remains a vital part of Malta’s identity, blending historical architecture with modern cruise terminals, marinas and maritime events.
Participants will depart from Sliema Ferries at 6.00pm and return to the starting point by 11.00pm. During the cruise, nibbles and a glass of Prosecco will be served.
Tickets cost €50 for adults, €45 for seniors and students, and €40 for Heritage Malta members. These can be purchased at any Heritage Malta museum and site, and online HERE.
*Tickets are non-refundable and non-exchangeable.
**Please note that only children aged 10 and over are permitted to attend (Children are entitled to the student rate).
