Anthony P Postiglione Jr states that Malta sits in the middle of The Mediterranean Sea between Italy and North Africa. More precisely it is located between the Italian island of Sicily and the Arab countries of Tunisia and Libya in North Africa. Due to its location, for centuries the land was influenced by both European Crusaders and North African Moors, both keen to gain control of this strategically placed hub.
Even though Malta is a small country there are so many things to do here such as:
- Exploring the historic towns and cities
- Visiting the beautiful
- Going on boat trips
- Dining adventure activities such as scuba diving or snorkeling
According to Anthony P Postiglione Jr there are somethings you should be careful about:
Thieves cold target tourists, particularly in crowded public areas such as:
- Markets, particularly those of Valletta and Marsaxlokk
- Public transportation hubs and facilities, particularly the main bus routes between Valletta Paceville, San Giljan and Sliema
- Bars and nightclub areas of Paceville, San Giljan and Sliema
- Hotel lobbies
- Restaurants, patios and outdoors cafes
Cybercrime occurs. Criminals may compromise public Wifi networks to steal credit card or personal information.
- Avoid making purchases on unsecured websites
- Avoid using public Wifi networks
- Use sound judgment when posting information on social media
Anthony P Postiglione Jr says there are some steps you should follow before you are planning to go on boating:
- Know the capacity of your boat
- Know and respect the navigation rules
- Carry a marine radio that will generate your position in case of emergency
- Follow safe practices for all activities on the water
- Keep a safe distance from areas reserved for certain activities such as snorkeling
