If you’re looking to taste some gastronomic delights, MedAsia Fusion, Charles Grech Bistro and Ta’ Kris will impress with their amazing local and fusion menus.
Take a day boat or ferry across to the quieter island of Gozo - just remember to pack your snorkel as the water is incredible - or learn to sail, water-ski or scuba off the coast of Sliema. Comino, though smaller, is also a watersports haven and is famous for its Blue Lagoon, an inviting pool of clear aquamarine water. Head further north for an evening to check out the resorts near St Paul's Bay or take a tour of some of the island backdrops used in the famous series Game of Thrones.
Around the Sliema area, watersports are in abundance, and you’ll often see waterskiers and jet-skiers whizzing around the Med. If you’re feeling a little adventurous, and need a bit of an adrenaline injection, why not sign up for one of these thrilling activities yourself? There’s no time like the present!
Like the majority of the Maltese coastline, the beaches are rocky but lidos offer safe swimming around Sliema and flat jetties are great for sunbathing. Ancient pools also dot the coastline near Sliema, and with ladders dangling down into the azure waters they are the perfect place for a quick dip.

Most of these are centred on Triq ix-Xatt, near the harbour, where you’re guaranteed to find an establishment that has the vibes you’re looking for. Whether it’s wine, cocktails or just a good draught beer, there’s a refreshing drink waiting!

Tigne used to be the site for barracks of the British Army, where one of the largest redevelopment projects have cropped up. A pedestrian-only thoroughfare, it is now an attraction for tourists and locals alike. Sliema’s largest mall, The Point, is located here. Borrowing a leaf from Paris, a footbridge here is decorated with some padlocks.
Sliema’s Tower Road Seaside Promenade offers excellent views of the sea. Heading towards St Julian's, you will pass a restaurant called Il-Fortizza that was previously a British military artillary tower. At Belluta Bay, there are several terraced Art-Deco townhouses and more great views.

18th Century Fort Manoel is a hop away from Marsamxett Harbour and has been used a set for TV series Game of Thrones. The annex Lazaretto was used as a quarantine, and once upon a time Lord Byron was lodged here. You can potter down on its well-used path to see the marina.
