Malta is a small archipelago in Mediterranian sea. The biggest islands are Malta, Gozo and Camino. You can easily order one-day cruise and visit them all.
The landscape in Malta is really beautiful: blue sea, colourful flowers and houses in a color of sand.
People in Malta speak Maltese, but English is widely used as well. Most of the supermarkets offer food from UK and Italy, so it is really easy to be a vegan in Malta.

I always try some local foods as well. In Malta's case it was some nice vegan spreads, called
quarjoli and
bigilla. The first one is made of tomatoes and bread crumbs, while the second one is made of beans, garlic and herbs. Both were really delicious and perfect for my first breakfast in Malta.

If you enjoy vegan ice-cream as much as I do, Malta is the right place to go. From simple vegan ice-cream in big boxes you can find in any supermarket, to amazing home-made ice-cream bought in one of many gelaterias. From ordinary vanilla and chocolate, to fresh cherry and pistachio soy ice-cream - everyone will definitely find something suitable!

| You can spot many gardens everywhere. The soil looks dry and poor, but it seems that all these veggies do not care about it : ) |
A thing I have really missed in Malta was the markets. There is none. Well, there are a few, but it has nothing to do with grocery shopping. Only some local foods (honey and cheese) as well as some souvenirs are sold there. So everytime you want some fresh fruits and vegetables, you buy it from mobile markets - farmers selling food from their customised trucks, or from small shops.

To sum up, Malta is a great destination for vegan travelers: it has perfect climate, good variety of vegan food, beautiful sea and fresh fruit and vegetables almost all year round. What else can one wish for?..
