The greener side of the Maltese Islands

Parks & Reserves of Malta

My greener Malta

There is more green here than the limestone suggests.

Malta's natural spaces are often small, seasonal and easy to overlook.

Old woodland survives in sheltered valleys, formal gardens hide behind palace walls, winter rain brings freshwater systems back to life and coastal wetlands become staging grounds for migrating birds. These are the places where I slow down, look closer and discover a different side of the islands.
