Is this city in Malta becoming the new Sliema ? Exploring Marsaskala

Is this city in Malta becoming the new Sliema ? Exploring Marsaskala in todays video. Located in the south eastern region of Malta, i explored Marsaskala which is a beautiful coastal town in Malta visited by many tourists. I was surprised to see that the town is mixed of everything, it has a traditional and modern vibe. It offers a lot of restaurants, bars and shops. It is more quite than Sliema and it is a great town for families in Malta.

The Maltese melon was delicious ❤Marsaskala is great, i really like it, not that i wouold move there but i suggest it for people who want to live in a more quite area that has a nice walking area and restaurants. Also dont forget to check my personal guide book about Malta, link here: alexinmalta.com/product/malta-guide-book-vol-1/

Hi Alex. I would love to order your book but it would be sent to uk. I've been told that the post between Malta & UK is a bit hit & miss. x

Visiting Marsaskala for the first time next week from Devon UK. Perfect timing for this video. We definitely made the right choice of area, having been to Melleha area a few times. Close to airport, Prehistoric Temples & caves, quiet, less construction, Boutique hotels very reasonably priced, etc. Can't wait! Thanks for your excellent videos. Love from Val & Bill x

[@AlexinMalta]

Wuhuuu :) im glad that you came across my video before your trip. You will love Marsaskala

[@joyfill1295]

Hi Alex It was nice that you met my niece and her family,also my brother.They came from Australia.Seen the photo at Hotel Sliema or Gzira.Marsascala when I was young we use to go Zonqor for a swim from Cospicua.🌷❤️

[@AlexinMalta]

It was nice to talk to you on a video chat as well :) thank you for watching my videos❤️

[@judybus1]

I love Marsaskala also. I was interested in a penthouse about 6 years ago but the contractor was taking way too long to complete it so bought somewhere else. One of my favourite places to swim is there, not many people know of it and im gonna keep it that way. 😉

[@AlexinMalta]

Where did you buy ? :)

[@paulholman9117]

Hi Alex great video and glad the melon was nice oh yes and we will see you again tomorrow when we visit Malta again looking forward to it !! Love Paul and Richardx

Im here in Malta... im going to marsaskala.... thanks ✌️

[@anthonygaffiero3361]

The problem with Marsascala nowadays is accessibility. The place itself gas grown exponentially in the last 20 years, drawing to it immense flows of traffic. This traffic has to flow, itself, through other very busy towns, namely Fgura, Żabbar or Żejtun. So one can imagine how busy and clogged these access roads to Marsascala are! Taking the bus, whether in or out of Marsascala can also be problematic. The town lies at the edge of the island, so getting anywhere will take time, plus you will have to navigate through heavy traffic, as i said earlier. Also, buses to Marsascala tend to be very crowded, till the very last stop. So, yes, Marsascala itself is great, but living there comes with some difficulties which people who need to travel in and out of the place should consider well.

[@matthewmichealattard7602]

I fully agree, you've described the problems with living in Marsaskala in accurate detail.

[@travelwithcol4625]

Interesting Tours Alex! 👏 I am back over to Malta in Nov! I also have a YT Channel @ Travel with Col

[@johnm7469]

These types of videos are extremely helpful! Thank you Alex! I will definitely put Marsaskala on my list for apartment search. It has a lot of what I’m looking for: walk-ability, restaurants, shops, seaview and quieter than central Malta. More videos like this please? 😀❤

[@AlexinMalta]

More to come ❤️ check my channel i already covered a lot of cities thru my videos 🤩

Thinking about moving to Marsaskala from Finland, I would be working in Sliema but ive got a motorcycle so the commute wouldnt be an issue it seems nice!

Lived there in the house with the long driveway behind the lookout point. Across from the water polo place. Could see the whole bay from the front porch in 1977. Now lot and drive are still there, but looks like the house has been split into two separate. I don’t recognize any of it except the old village. I’m am so old.

Marsaskala is super far from everything, unfortunately if you don’t have a car, is not a good option

[@bartosz3232]

Malta and far 😂

[@Misterjuzz]

@@bartosz3232 It's far from a time POV. Leaving for work to anywhere central like Zebbug or more north like St Julians/pembroke will take you at least 50 minutes during rush hour. Rush hour being 7:30am-8:30am and also going home, 5pm-6pm. Main culprit: Zabbar - single-lane roads, old people driving slow and garbagemen

[@MysticScapes]

You always take uber or bolt

Hmm. The house we lived in when I was a child is still there, but looks closed-up... Hopefully you will walk past it if you go onto the little jetty 👍

[@AlexinMalta]

Which part of Marsaskala is it ?

[@EzXu19]

Thats not St.Thomas Area…. Thats the Old Part the Promenade. St.Thomas area is only in the area where there is Zion, the villas etc…. I live my whole life in Marsaskala and I know this very well. Also do not go to St. Thomas Bay (Ramla Bay) in summer is packed with the worst types of people! Many more clean and beautiful beaches in Marsaskala. And the Feast of St.Anne is held on the last Sunday of July. This guy doesn’t know about marsaskala he just wants to sell Apartments lol.

[@bartosz3232]

What beaches do you recommend in Marsaskala region?

Thank you for this video. We have been to Marsaskala twice this week, on Monday and Thursday, but only to Zonqor at the Dive site. (Beautiful scuba diving there). Next time, we will have to explore more of the town after our dives.

[@simonebillings2590]

Thank you for showcasing Marsaskala in this video! I remember liking it a good deal when I lived there -- and my compatriot during that time and I went to that traditional Maltese restaurant you pointed out, Familja, for lunch, and we thought the food and service and decor were all great! A bit to the north on the coast from the promenade you were walking with the rocky beach and children's play area was another place my nephew and I had lunch at Zion, a chill, laid-back place. Try that place out maybe for a casual meal--great food and drinks!
