Everyone has to have an evening's flutter once in a while. And there is no better time than on holiday. Malta has several excellent casinos. Choose from an elegant colonial-style villa, an ultra modern hotel complex, or a restored 17th century, harbour-side palace. All provide great entertainment whether you're new to the tables or have tried your luck before. And when it comes to dining out, you'll find the casinos offer a superb choice of cuisines from international fare to Mediterranean specialities at their excellent restaurants. As well as bars and open-air venues for a chat and a sociable drink or cocktail.

Remember - Casinos are for adults only. If you decide to gamble, play responsibly and practice gaming for its entertainement and relaxation value. Always know your limits and know when to stop. If you, or someone you know, has a gambling problem, call the Responsible Gaming Foundation helpline 1777 or Sedqa agency on 179.
