Cruising to Filfla (FULLY BOOKED)
Heritage Malta welcomes you on July 5th to explore the fascinating history and natural wonders of Filfla and Malta's Grand Harbour in Valletta, one of the Mediterranean's most spectacular natural harbours. Throughout your voyage along Malta's eastern and southern shores, you'll learn about Filfla's geological origins, the background of its name, its historical significance to corsairs, its role as a wartime target, and the diverse wildlife now inhabiting the island. Keep watch for potential encounters with seabirds, sea turtles, and dolphins during your journey. The Grand Harbour boasts a rich past spanning from prehistoric times through the Phoenician era, the Rule of the Knights Hospitaller, and British colonial rule, establishing itself as a crucial maritime centre across the centuries. The waterfront features impressive defensive structures such as Fort St Elmo, Fort St Angelo, and Fort Ricasoli, which demonstrate its strategic naval significance. The Grand Harbour continues to represent a cornerstone of Malta's cultural heritage today, merging centuries-old fortifications with contemporary elements.
