Cruising to Filfla
Heritage Malta welcomes you on July 12th to explore the fascinating history and natural wonders of Filfla and Malta's Grand Harbour in Valletta, one of the Mediterranean's most impressive natural harbours. Throughout your boat excursion along Malta's eastern and southern shoreline, you'll learn about Filfla's geological origins, the background of its name, why it attracted corsairs, its role as a bombing range, and the diverse wildlife now inhabiting the islet. Watch for opportunities to spot dolphins, sea turtles, and various seabirds during your journey. The Grand Harbour has played a crucial role throughout Malta's past, serving as a major maritime crossroads from Neolithic times through the Phoenician period, the Order of St John, and British colonial rule. The waterway is encircled by substantial defensive structures, namely Fort St Elmo, Fort St Angelo, and Fort Ricasoli, which demonstrate its long-standing strategic significance. The Grand Harbour continues to represent an integral element of Malta's heritage today, combining historical landmarks with contemporary features.
