Scenic Viewpoints
Perched on the island’s west coast, the Dingli Cliffs offer panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. These cliffs, rising over 250 meters above sea level, are the highest point in Malta. The best time to shoot would be sunset, when the cliffs are bathed in a golden glow and the sea sparkles with the last light of the day.
Upper Barrakka Gardens
Blue Grotto
This series of sea caverns on the southern coast is famous for its brilliant blue waters and dramatic rock formations. We recommend shooting in the morning, when the sunlight illuminates the water inside the caverns.
Wied il-Mielaħ Window, Gozo
Found at the end of the Wied- il-Mielaħ Valley, the coast on which this particular window can be found on is linked directly to the road and can be easily driven to. The best time to shoot would be sometime in the afternoon, for the best light on the cliffs and sea.
Historic Landmarks
Known as the “Silent City”, Mdina is a treasure trove of narrow streets, old Medieval buildings, and unique charm. We definitely suggest to get there early, or late in the evening to avoid the crowds and harsh sunlight.
St. John’s Co-Cathedral
Located in Valletta, this cathedral is a masterpiece of Baroque architecture with stunning and intricate interiors, not to mention, remarkable pieces of artwork. Mid-morning or mid-afternoon would be the best time of day to sheet, when the interior is lit by the light that streams in naturally through the windows.
Vibrant Street Scenes
Marsaxlokk Fishing Village
This charming village is known for its colourful luzzu boats and bustling Sunday market. Get there on a Sunday morning for softer light and fewer crowds.
Valletta
Malta’s capital is full of character with its historic buildings, narrow streets, and lively squares. Get there early in the morning, or later in the afternoon to capture the city's energy while avoiding the harsh midday sun.
Birgu, Bormla and Isla
The Three Cities' narrow alleys, quaint balconies, and overall historic charm make them a go-to destination for those seeking authenticity and charm. Depending on what you intend to shoot, you can go there early in the morning for serene, empty streets or late in the evening for a livelier atmosphere.
The Social Scene
Sunsets at Singita, Armier and Café del Mar
These locations offer diverse environments for capturing Malta's breathtaking sunsets, and are often the backdrop to Malta's most exclusive events. Check out all the latest events happening in these breath-taking locations.
