About Ta Xbiex

The Royal Malta Yacht Club is a modern yacht club with facilities you would expect at the Royal Club (changing rooms, showers, toilets, bar and restaurant along with outside terraces and a rooftop events area).

The yacht club has one large slipway which can take two boats at a time launching and recovery. We will also have a number of young club members on the slipway helping with launching and recovery.

The typically Mediterranean winter weather is mild with daytime temperature around 16°C falling to 9°C in the evenings.

The average sea temperatures at its annual low of 16ºC, while humidity's low and ranges from around 60% to the mid 90s. Average rainfall drops to 63mm across 12 rainy days. The average wind speed in January is 16 kn but can get up to as much as 20 kn on windy days.

 

Local tourist information

Please see the Malta Tourism Authority website https://www.visitmalta.com/en/home

Valletta is known for its museums, palaces, grand churches and one of the best views in Europe that of Grand Harbour.

Baroque landmarks include St. John’s Co-Cathedral, whose opulent interior is home to the Caravaggio masterpiece "The Beheading of Saint John.”

The whole city is a World Heritage Site recognised by UNESCO.

The island is full of histry and there's no shortage of things to do and see, in recent years the island has started to get a reputation as a gourmet hub.

 

Accommodation

We would recommend that you look for a hotel in Sliema, Gzira, Ta' Xbiex or Msida neighbourhoods, all within walking distance of the Yacht Club.

Sliema is one of the central tourist districts with good shopping, restaurants etc.

The hotels we use are in the ST Hotel Group, there is the Chapter5 Boutique Hotel in Msida and a new Apartment Hotel Grands Suites in Gzira.

There are some lovely boutique hotels in Valletta. There are some excellent deals on Airbnb in the above neighbourhoods.

 

Transport

Malta is quite a small island and there should be no need to hire a car. There is good affordable public transport and a wide range of affordable taxi companies to get people around. Malta drives on the left-hand side of the road, the same as the Cyprus, United Kingdom and Ireland.
